Why announce a delivery date when it will not be respected? More than 7 days difference between the announced date and the delivery date! Non-existent communication! No response to my requests for information.

1st order. Package received in good condition. But that the delivery time is long compared to the indications initially indicated. To moderate my comment 1001 maquettes are dependent on carriers. This will not prevent me from recommending on

pleasant store but not all brands of plastic maqette manufacturers as well as for resin decal kits. Serious about leftovers, they come back when it's available again on their website.

The time between an internet order and the dispatch of that order is far too long: 4 to 5 days for products available within 24 hours.

The purchase went well. Only the receipt of the order was several days late. The website contains a lot of products. I suppose that this is why it crashes too often. Otherwise the customer service is excellent. This is the first time I have bought from you. My opinion is favorable and I will be ordering again.

having ordered 2 assembly kits one was intact while one was missing pieces I asked for the missing pieces to be shipped but never received a response if they had answered my question or complaint I would have also given 5 stars because the site is very detailed and fast.

I don't know what happened to my cheque. I sent it the same day as my order and it arrived the day after I received an e-mail saying that you hadn't received it, 10 days after I sent it. Despite everything, I was pleased with the work that was done after this incident, because I don't think the post office takes so long to trans

Poor communication My order has been processing for nearly three weeks without any firm contact from 1001 Model Kits. The only e-mails I have received are three copies of OTHER buyer's requests for shipping updates and a copy of an inquiry I made before ordering - and that was never responded to - plus it now refers to a product I didn't ask about. All these e-mails seem to automated responses. All I ask for is an e-mail - preferably from a real person - letting me know that my order is in stock and it will be shipping soon . UPDATE: I finally received my order from 1001 Models - nearly two months after my order was placed and paid for. Communication was better over the last few weeks but still below expectations. I can accept delays but only if I'm informed of them. I was still getting comments in my account that had nothing to do with my order.

Slow Delivery The sale of this model kit was the slowest in a sale of a $200.00 Model kit. Delivery was good the box came in good shape and took a parts count ] to make sure that all part trees were in the model kit it was complete full] count. All in All I have to say for being the slowest delivery of a sale in my case this model kit I wanted so even thou the long wait I have to say it was wait. this is the reason I only 3 stars for slow delivery response for sale DHL was good on Delivery date one day early

Two weeks! Still no delivery of order. Ordered supplies from their site that were marked as in-stock. Order has been sitting in the ""Being Processed"" state now for over 2 weeks after I've been charged. No updates, no back ordered notifications, NOTHING. About ready to file a claim with PayPal on this one. Be wary of this company's order fulfillment time.

5 star price, 2 star customer service The price is really good, so I am OK with the LONG waiting period. But customer service is bad, when I told them my items are damaged, they replied my VERY slowly, although they did send me replacement parts. They don't even inform me that they are sending the replacement. Overall I am pretty happy now, because I got my replacement(still pretty slow), and the price is REALLY good!

I found wagons for the model railroad here that are no longer available anywhere else. However, it is not true that the goods are dispatched within two days. It was more like two weeks. So if you are looking for a rare model, this is the right place. However, you have to be patient.

Large, well-stocked boxdoubts about the state of the stock when an order is placedno verbal communication possible to obtain information about an order that is not delivered within a reasonable time (more than 15 days).As it stands I would not recommend 1001 and a model as a preferred supplier.I may change my mind if I receive news of my order 64512 which was settled on 26.08.1

Good quality product - delayed delivery. Slight damage to corner of book but not serious. Otherwise quality of book as supplied was acceptable. Delivery was quoted on website as 5-6 days but took nearer to two weeks and needed chasing up. Opted for tracker on delivery but information provided was very limited and no explanation or warning given for delay experienced in delivery.
