Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

it does not protect products during transport

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxc

The timing and tracking have taken too long, more information on the process would be encouraging. The shipment is correct.

Order took a long time to arrive. These were needed on promised delivery date but arrived much later so I had to order this order elsewhere and received it faster

are confusing, some products that were supposed to arrive in a short time never arrived and other products apparently available, while waiting for them to arrive others disappeared or even became pre-orders. I had to send a lot of emails and make several phone calls while also having to insist that I demanded refunds, which they then did with a couple of refunds and a voucher, which luckily I was able to spend because there was another item I was interested in. in short out of 5 models I received one that took three weeks to ship despite it being available. in short they are honest in that they refunded what they owed but too dispersive, on the model I received I saved something compared to average prices but it wasn't worth all the time I had to waste.

Goods as promised. Delivery time far too long. Communication ok, but not precise.

The paint colors do not match, yellow and burgundy among others. 4 colors received, only 2 usable, and if I follow the nomenclature I need 14 so frustration.

I strongly advise against this site: the product purchased never arrived and customer service doesn't even reply - or, when they do reply, it's to knowingly give false information (e.g., to make people believe that they've received the item and that it will be shipped soon) and then to postpone the next shipping date once again... In short, a scam to be avoided unless you want to waste time and money!

Out of stock not notified prior to purchase. I've seen several notices after buying notifying this. When I bought a figurine, I told myself that I would exceptionally take a direct home delivery and pay a little more so that it would be quick (for a birthday). Result: Order received a little over 2 weeks later, even though the delivery date was ANNOUNCED at the time of purchase, a few days later. I don't recommend this site and won't buy anything from it again.

The client service did not respond by phone as well as no answer via web site forms. Even thought there is a great product catalog, description I am doubt I will ever try this webshop again.

Goods were broken. All glass bottles. I sent photos. But I still had to send everything back. It all took weeks. Then one product was no longer available. I never received the remaining amount! Despite a request. Communication is the worst. Once a problem arises here, everything is pointless.

I received my last order very late. Deliveries are much faster from E Bay and AMAZON. I will not buy from you again.

I bought 2 constructions but if I knew that it is explained only in German I would never have made the purchase also because I did not choose the easier ones....peccato....they are new and left in the closet

The site is done well, easy to choose and order the product. However, the delivery time is too long for a not inconsiderable cost.

Best thing was the price on this particular model, but they're often not competitive on price. It's not apparent when ordering, but dispatched from Europe, which means a delay on delivery. Worst thing, only wrapped in bubble wrap, so more prone to damage and was grilled by the postie about the kit, which could be clearly soon through this.

Order has not arrived and when I notified the company the response was less than pleasing. Right now, not happy at all with 1001hobbies and unless the error is rectified will never give them business again and will dispute the charge on my card. I do hope that things will be settled properly.

Order only partially completed, but had paid full price.

Ordered on 18/07/23, delivered on 03/08/23. According to a manager, it takes a minimum of one week per delivery, 16 days to get my order, TO BE IMPROVED. I tried 6 times to contact them by phone, impossible, nobody picks up. I've left 3 e-mails, the last one with my phone number, and I've been answered. TO IMPROVE

Shipping was very slow...The stickers were placed over the paint labels, and when I tried to peel them off they took the label away with them, so it was very difficult to work out which shades of color were which...otherwise, packaging was very good.

The product arrived without some parts promptly reported to me was knowing what to do, still on Monday, then no one was heard from again

They list items on their website they don't have. I don't want to say it's a scam, but it's pretty close. They disregarded my email instructions regarding my order and took their own actions. Very disappointing.

The special radar tower I bought with previous order , expensive and quality pulls at nothing for a collector-builder .To place so many orders with you this is really very poor result , really leaves much to be desired .

My order was over a month late and I couldn't get an exact delivery date!

No luck with this order, three months for delivery after two phone calls and two emails with no response, so yes, just one star, and I will no longer be a customer of this site.

My order was delivered quickly. Unfortunately, the color number labels were glued over all the colors. It was very time-consuming to wash these stickers off without damaging the stickers underneath.

A stock order taking almost 14 days instead of three days. Probably 1001 hobbies had to order the product from Japan first and then send it to me. Really sad when the item is listed as stock with the mailbox package also having to cost at least 6.95. This was my first and also my last order at 1001hobbies.

There were some problems with the stock of some products so it took a while, but as soon as it was shipped it arrived within 3 days and in very good condition.

I received a broken 80€ figure. After I contacted them, of course, they wanted to give me a 15€ voucher (for a broken 80€ figure ???). Since I was not satisfied, they wanted me to absolutely destroy the figure and send a picture. Only then would I have gotten a new one, so I preferred to take the 15€ and fix the figure with some glue, but I have to say that the shipping and how it was packed was absolutely bad.
At least 3 stars because the support is nice and replies quickly

When I placed my order it was supposed to ship within 1week. After 2 weeks I received my order. My messages on your site were not responded to. You guys are even slower than aliexpress. I will never order anything from you again. Worthless mess.

There was a spray can of Tamiya TS17 missing. I reported that, but haven't gotten a response yet.

The first order placed on 17/07/23 arrived on 26/07/23. The second order, placed on 18/07/23, has not yet arrived (27/07/23). To be improved!

fast delivery items at reasonable price not excessive

Very long delivery time. Impossible to reach them by phone

service too long for last order

We ordered a helicopter for our son. The packaging had already been opened once and the remote control was missing. Tears flowed at the birthday table. My son asks me every day if I have reached anyone at 1001 - unfortunately not. I am now getting the money back via Paypal. Never ever again.

Run away! Deadlines not met, customer service in freewheel mode: unable to do what's asked of them. A lot of stress and fruitless e-mail exchanges. A horror! All this to find myself running to find a replacement gift at the last minute, when I had ordered 2 items in March for an important birthday in June... Help!

disappointed by the quality of the paint, throw away one can and the other will soon do the same.

The models were a gift to my husband for his birthday so I payed the extra for them to be gift wrapped. However the gift wrap was a lot to be desired it looked liked they couldn’t be bothered so had to redo it. Otherwise quick and easy.

I did not receive the item I ordered.

The items arrived, but communication about delivery left a lot to be desired.
If you call them outside of business hours it seems like they have been closed for two years.
