Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

The stock was not up to date at the time of purchase, and I was not contacted to find out. In the end, the order was cancelled after an exchange of a dozen e-mails. The refund only came a month later.

3 months waiting for the parcel ... And the article page guaranteed delivery within 3 days ...

a damaged product arrived, and after I reported it, it's been over 2 weeks and I still haven't heard anything

The site is simple, clean and gives confidence in the purchase. However, the item I received (a model) was already open when I received the package... In terms of after-sales service, it's been 3 weeks of email exchanges... to find out what the problem is, send a photo... then I'm offered a replacement, but once again I have to send a photo + item number + after-sales service form to fill in with my name and the reason, and finally I'm offered a credit note or a refund, but not the new item, so I'm still exchanging emails and I almost feel like giving up and ordering from another site... (The accessories I ordered were all of the expected quality and packaged... unopened, hooray...)

Order never arrived. After more than 2 months of waiting, I requested a refund. I have been waiting for this for over 2 months now

Having made 2 purchases for 2 orders on the same day and within minutes of each other I asked if it was possible to pay only a shipping cost. Negative response. I had already made other purchases but do not think I will make any more.

it will depend on the answer of 1001 hobbies!

Waiting more than 1 month to receive a refund of 11.57 euros is unfortunate.

Order not received. After five weeks of waiting, enough was enough. No replies to multiple emails. Got money back, because I paid happily with PayPal. I absolutely recommend against this seller.

I never received the boxwood barrels I paid for. Nor was I contacted again about this problem (even by e-mail).

A real nightmare. They take a long time to deliver what they say they have in stock first hand. But the worst thing is that a cancellation of an order of more than 100 € I had to resort to the OCU after a month of purchase to make me the refund. I do not recommend this website at all. They are also the most expensive by far after having discovered other specialized online stores. My recommendation... Flee, you fools!

Did not send me the correct sheet--wrong scale--not the sheet number I ordered. I'm out 50 bucks.

Poor reception and the person I spoke to didn't want to understand the poor quality of the Revell pots.

My order was placed on February 20 and has just been dispatched (expected delivery date April 12). One item was not in stock, so the order was not delivered (but the amount was debited). The most shocking thing is that apart from an initial message (10 days after the order) saying that the preparation of the delivery had been delayed, I received no information, and was obliged to repeat the process to have the order (without the offending item) delivered to me. I was given a voucher for the missing item rather than a refund. I don't think I'll be using this site again, I don't like the way it works.

Waiting for my order for over 1 month, while everything was in stock when I ordered! To finally receive only half and a voucher for the value of my missing order, I'm not even reimbursed!!!! It's a disgrace! My 1st order took more than 15 days to arrive! I'm not talking about your shipping costs for such long services!!! Sincerely

Having waited all these weeks for this product, when it arrived it was the wrong one. What a useless company you are. As soon as I saw the springs you sent I binned them

purchased 2 model boat kits. one had no English instructions. and i am still waiting for them. this company are in france and not the uk. So expect duty to be paid . I had to pay £65 . would i use them again ? No.

It really isn't clear when you purchase an item in the UK that you will have to pay import duty !!! Which is very expensive!! I tried to contact the seller but suprise surprise no response !! Check before you buy !!!!

I'm missing one of the items I ordered, available on other sites. I've been waiting for a while, no return...

Logistical management regarding warehouse management, leaves something to be desired by waiting to an inadequate extent for both the material ordered, and more so for reimbursement. I am expressly determined to change suppliers...to forget!!!

Still not received the spur gear I ordered 5 months ago. They tried to resolve the issue but sent me the wrong item and I ended up buying another one. I'd avoid if you can, just can't get LRP spares in the UK from anyone else.

Never buy from them I ordered September 1, 2021 2 protege card ultimatum guard which was available on the site, as soon as I paid the product was awaiting delivery supplier the order was postponed every month for 2-3 months after no more news I had to call them after 6 months I was sent 1 protege card because it was the last, I asked for a refund for the 2nd protege card it should be done within a week and 2 months later still nothing ...never again on this site, products put on sale when they do not have it in stock it is their supplier who stocks and when you buy the supplier does not have the product

Very disappointed with this site, I strongly advise against it.

my shipment arrived with damaged packaging and broken contents to my complaint, I got so far no answer very bad service here I never buy again

No refund, its been 2 months, not a UK company despite its deception

Order did not arrive for far too long.

Model sent in a simple postal envelope. On receipt, half the envelope was crushed, unusable model.... No further comments

Wrong product received. Came in the box as advertised but the product inside wasn’t correct

Very bad experience. Ordered 2 model cars in December 2021 for about €72.00. Emailed several times after 2 months when to expect the order. Would be shipped. Of course received nothing. Then 4 request to refund the amount I paid. Answer was, passed on to financial administration, take into account 2 weeks processing. After one and a half weeks still no refund.

Envoyé plusieurs fois par e-mail après 2 mois quand attendre la commande. serait expédié. Rien reçu bien sûr. Après 4 demande de remboursement du montant payé par moi. La réponse était, compte tenu de l'administration financière, prend 2 semaines à traiter. Après un an et demi toujours rien remboursé

Navigation is complicated Too many manipulations before making a choice. Between the commune or the site says in stock and delivery 2 months later what more can you say.

The box of Belgian artillery waterloo 1815 was open and pieces are missing...I have written to you and you have not answered..these things must be notified before sending.

Let's just say that I have been making purchases over the Internet for about 20 years now. Well, 1001 Hobbies.co.uk is the first and only internet seller where I feel ripped off. I ordered (07/2021) a model kit Space Probe Voyager but got a bag of ball bearings. A second attempt was made (via credit voucher / 02/2022) but had to pay shipping costs again, again got a bag of ball bearings. I finally asked for refund but no real response to this. From me next advice: rather buy from another online provider. It will save you a lot of misery.

Very bad.Not delivered on time; ordered two things one received; way too late.Have been waiting for weeks now for refund of the undelivered item and nothing comes.Never order anything again.

Well what can I say? Instead of the kit I ordered, I received a set of paint masks as there was a confusion with the serial number. The order clearly had the name of the aircraft of the kit I ordered but that didn't seem to make any difference. I was told to keep the masks and that I would be refunded. It didn't happen until I reminded them weeks later.

If there were zero stars I would DO that! I placed my order in December and it has not arrived to this day!!! I'm pissed off! Total scam I had booked express shipping because it was 12/17/2021 and I wanted it to be there for my husband on Christmas! I'll never order here again. And every time you try to contact them. Will only be sorry etc . No update no replacement nothing! Totally disappointed! Never again

I'm very unhappy with the way I've been treated by 1001 Hobbies. When I was at their site I had intended to order some decals, but when I got to the point where I learned the shipping cost, I felt that it was way too much. So I didn't complete the order. I DID NOT COMPLETE THE ORDER. 1001 Hobbies were aware that I didn't complete the order because they emailed me to ask why. I told them. Then they charged me US$71. and shipped it anyway. When I complained to Pay Pal and to 1001 Hobbies, 1001 Hobbies said they'll refund my money WHEN THEY GET THE STUFF BACK. So I now have to pay to ship it back, when I didn't want it in the first place. It hasn't arrived yet, but will be mailed back as soon as it's received. will never order from them again, ever.

Delivery was worthless

The stock of the store is not real and once you have paid they tell you that they will not be able to send it in the estimated time. Thank goodness for the paypal payment that gave me certain guarantees.

One model was broken, and I had to pay import duty !!!
