Shipped from across the pond? Did not know the model kit was coming from Europe. I received the order in 2 weeks, a little long for a plastic model kit

I ordered a miniature motorcycle for my son who has just bought his 1st motorcycle. My order was for a Honda Hornet, and when he opened it, he thanked me but asked me why I'd bought him one. In fact, the parcel contained a Ducati from the year 40! My surprise was ruined. It was my 1st order, so I'm not sure I'll be coming back to this site. Now I have to send it back at my own expense and wait to receive a credit note, hoping that my shipping costs will be reimbursed, which wasn't easy for the person I e

Hello, a quick note about my order. As far as processing and delivery are concerned, nothing to complain about. Quality of paints, brushes and small equipment in general. However, I was disappointed with the ITALERI figurines. They're crude, lacking in finesse, and the details of the parts are non-existent. I think there should be a more precise description and photo of the contents. It's true that I stopped modding a long time ago.

Some items are available in 48 hours or are delivered 5 days later? I think 5 days is too long because other suppliers are in 4 days.

for the figurines on 172, one or two photos of the products unpacked so that the customer can see the finish and quality of the product would be most welcome.

Gente muy poco seria Hace 15 días les pedí una maqueta de un avión ""Fieseler Storch"" por el que pagué con mi tarjeta visa algo más de 100€ y me enviaron un barco. Les he enviado varios correos electrónicos y todavía no he tenido contestación. Estoy muy enfadado. Si no me devuelven el dinero a me dan una solución, estoy dispuesto a denunciarles en todos los foros posibles especializados de internet, tanto en Francia, Inglaterra y España. Seguiré informando...

After placing my order on the site, the processing took a long time... very long. I thought I had placed my order in a hurry. But once the order was processed, I'd like to point out that I got it 2 days later.

As already summarized above, the selection is very good, but this is offset by the sometimes much higher price than other well-known portals. In any case, I will only order models from 1001modellbau that I can't get anywhere else. In my case, a delivery for working people with DPD is rather complicated because you can't arrange a time and unfortunately the drivers don't always press the bell properly.

Do you really want my opinion? ...........................Here it is, and this is the strict truth !!!! I will simply detail............( the history of my orders..........number of 2.............uniquely.........I was going to say fortunately......) I won't look for the dates, let's get to the point. So I place an order for miniatures and receive my parcel on time (at least that.......and well packaged), but when I open it all I see are mock-ups !!!! I contact them and they tell me that they will send me back the products of my choice for the same value as what was ordered..................except that the postage and packing for my return and the return of my parcels were at my expense !!!!!! A few months later I sent a message on the occasion of my second order saying that I wanted to start again on the right foot by forgetting and that I did not hold rigor ..................I order 3 models at 172nd I receive my package and on opening one of the three is at 176th !!!!! ...........withte model in the 172nd and the photo of the box on which is written"" 172nd "" !!!!! I contact them and they tell me that there's not much difference between the 172nd and the 176th !!!! I reply that I only ride the 172nd and that I know very well that the 172nd and 176th are not so similar................correctement ...... I then receive an e-mail telling me that I'm being offered 7 E on postage for my next order.....................Bravo !!!! I then receive an email telling me that shipping will be free for my next order of a minimum of 50 E and this valid until June 23 !!!!..............Bravo !!!!! So I"" MAGIC "" !!!!!!

In one of the 2 batches of 2 pilots, one arrived with a decapitated pilot, and in the other, one of the pilots was detached from the cluster, but his feet were still on the cluster. The other pilot had his feet severed, as well as a leg. With glue and patience... In conclusion, the packaging doesn't provide sufficient protection against shocks (transport? Automatic sorting? Fierce composting? No

happy to have found a model motorcycle that suits me and happy with the service because after 4 days this model was at home. But to my surprise, there were no instructions in French, and I don't speak Chinese or German or English, only FRENCH. After inquiring with the service, I was told that the instructions and drawings were clear enough for assembly. Que Nenni. I don't understand a thing. So why sell a model in France if you don't have the instructions in French? Even with a discount and free postage (given by the complaint department) I won't change my mind. I don't order from this site any more and I don't do anything else.

I received two thunderbolt P47 canopies and they were crushed! I couldn't get them back to their original shape. I received these pieces wrapped in bubble plastic in a paper envelope. It would be better to send them in rigid cardboard packages. What recourse do I have to obtain the canopies in good condition? This incident may not be your fault, but your packaging deserves to be improved.

Poorly packaged or previously damaged! Outside box had no damage, inside model box had damage. Makes me believe this model was damaged before shipping. Broken railing on model. Unacceptable when this was planned to be gifted!

I ordered a 1st time on 16.02.2013 5 models and I received only two small models. The other three more important were paid but lost in nature. The 2nd order on 12.05.2013 I received in order but the Air Malaysia Airbus A 380 that you sent me does not wear the latest colors of the company which are blue and white. Hoping for an answer a little more elaborate than the last I present you my greetings Fross

I will never use this company again. The goods have still not arrived after two weeks. Instead there are newsletters with models with Nazi symbols and tanks from the world war. If the package does not arrive within 4 days, I will ask for my money back.

Good for the product, true to the catalog image, not so good for the delivery time (product arrives from a warehouse and is shipped by the site (2 days lost at least) and finally, shipping costs of 5€ and change for a purchase of 289€ are petty. The competition is giving it away, so here's a good id

I ordered a yellow Fleischmann Shell wagon after requesting confirmation of availability by email specifying the color and marking of the wagon - confirmation of ""dispo"" - Received a silver wagon with no relation to the one ordered - Nothing to do to obtain a refund n of the purchase - Customer service only there to not answer Absolutely avoid this seller The 2304 - Following response from 1001 maquettes indeed they offered to return the wagon I c""At your expense and with file opening fee of 3 Euros"" This is how 1001 maquettes assumes its errors! Le 3004 - Following 1001 Maquettes' last message, I contacted customer service again, who agreed, after discussions, to a full refund of the purchase price and reimbursement of the cost of returning the non-compliant item. So as far as I'm concerned, the dispute is over. I'd just like to point out that the purchase took place on March 21. So if I keep just one star for the review (very bad first experience, but I'd like to point out that Customer Service has always been very courteous on the phone), I'm withdrawing the ""A FUIR - dishonest store"" to say ""You must insist that they take responsibility for their shipping error"".

I had booked express delivery to receive the parcel within the week. I didn't hear from him for the whole week, and it was only the following week that I received an e-mail telling me that my parcel was on its way. So I received it well after the 4 to 6 days I'd expected when ordering. I sent an e-mail before receiving it to find out why it was late and why I had received duplicate e-mails with errors in the automatic e-mails (one sentence did not appear correctly). I was waiting for an explanation. I received a few lines of reply with no apology, no explanation and, above all, no answers to my questions. So I sent another e-mail and I'm still waiting for an answer. This company doesn't manage after-sales service and customer relations at all. I'm very disappointed. I'd read some good comments, especially about deliveries, but apparently not everyone is on the same page.

Virtually unprotected packaging (a small piece of crumpled kraft paper insufficient to protect the miniature during transport. On unpacking, I see that the car's windscreen is broken. I wrote to 1001 maquettes...who merely offered me free delivery on my next order..... even though this was a standard commercial offer (I had already received an e-mail to this effect before delivery!). In short, deplorable service. And the customer service email was not signed and had no telephone number. TO BE AVOIDED
