Customer reviews of 1001hobbies

Nothing to say packaging models in good condition everything is there we could just regret the higher shipping costs than Ama

I have ordered 2 times and they have never met the delivery date. Currently as of January 12th I have not received an order dated December 26th, having paid for a 5-6 day shipment, they should reimburse the price of that shipment.

Ordered parts for my A6 Intruder on 25.12.14! Today (11.1.15) still nothing has arrived. The specified shipping number is not known at DHL! Weak!!!

1001 Modellini has never let me down the service and shipping is fast even when there is a wait for a product not in stock the wait is not long. In average prices 1001 Modellini comes up with a little less is this is good I personally wish that when offering buyers free shipping this does not expire the following week but at least 30 days later.

I ordered a car but when I received the package I was disappointed because I thought I had paint, glue and several other small things to make the car properly but nothing was in the package apart from the car. This is a very nice car but lacks my

Not impressed! Wrong size, wrong materials and unwrapped and they took almost 2 weeks to arrive. Category : Diecast models Fiat 500 Blue +500C Pink x 2 1:43 I ordered the advertised diecast models which were supposed to be a Fiat 500 in Blue and a 500C in Pink in 1:43 scale. What I received was 2 number Fiat 500's in Blue and 2 number 500C's in Pink in 1:87 scale in plastic. I also paid an extra £1.70 for gift wrapping, which was a paper bag! The quality of the products are excellent but they are not what I wanted or ordered! Wrong size, wrong materials and unwrapped, also they took almost 2 weeks to arrive. Additionally, when I checked my order on the website after they arrived, it had changed to what they delivered but the scale is still listed as 1:43. In summary they state that this product is no longer available - Which product is no longer available, the 1:43 Scale Die Cast Models or 1:87 Plastic Models? Luckily, my daughter, for which they were a Christmas present is happy with them.

All good! I recommend -)

Delivery times too long ( 13 days for items in stock ) Inadequate packaging. One of the items ordered arrived broken. For these two reasons: poor quality

I placed my order on December 17th for a product""supposedly"" in stock and which I paid for on the spot. Despite being processed the next day it was not shipped until a week later. Then the shipment has taken 10 more working days to arrive (15 calendar days). Not to compare but a fellow hobbyist placed an order on another site on December 30 and on January 5 he had it at home and was able to deliver his gifts on time. If the transport company they work with does not work, maybe they should be able to deliver the gifts on time.

Everything is fine. I received the product I ordered in perfect condition. The only thing is that they take a long time to send. So if what you buy is for a gift it is best to order it well in advance at least with a

A huge choice for models at all levels. No express delivery - that's my only negative, which I wouldn't give 5 stars for.

order placed on 2212 we are on 501 and still nothing received

The first purchase experience definitely negative due to excessively long delivery waiting time (4 months). The second definitely better. To improve the search steps on the site and the shipping costs

The delivery time is a bit long. Despite my question about the delivery time, 1001 maquettes did not reply. Models of good quality and parcel well em

For my order the money was withdrawn on 20122014 supposedly shipped on 26122014 . Today 312014 still no parcel.I know there were holidays but my other parcels ordered in France arrive MUCH FASTER. I don't live at the end of the

Getting the parcel to you on time Receiving the parcel correctly

Expensive prices (acceptable) but faulty service (unacceptable) .

Very fast service, the only downside is that shipping costs are just as high for a simple decal board as for a box of make-up.

All good. The site could perhaps highlight better that the product is shipped from abroad and the shipping time is therefore longer. However, shipping was fast and efficient.

I can recommend 1001 maquettes without any unpleasant surprises.

The instructions could be more 'clear. I have some doubts about the 1:32 scales do not seem so accurate at least in the case of the American armored car .

Lots of choice and order received quickly. However, the explanations given about the models are a little too brief. But I'm happy to recommend this site.

timing as indicated.

disappointed I was very sorry that the models did not arrive on time for grandkids to open at Christmas. They still have not arrived.

So far so good.....ll Couriered to UK from France by DHL during Christmas week, arrived before most of our UK parcels which were ordered much earlier! This would be 5 stars, except for the fact that this expensive, sophisticated wooden sailing ship model kit was open and had been repackaged somewhere along the line. There is no way to tell if anything is missing due to the complexity of the model (Amati HMS Surprise from the Aubrey/Maturin novels).

Too bad I can't contact them by phone! I didn't receive an e-mail to let me know when the parcel had arrived. The relationship aspect needs to be improved. Otherwise, I got my parcel on time and I'm satisfied with the service.

Unfortunately my first order on 1001 maquettes wasn't a very serene one, as it was placed more than 10 days before Christmas and didn't arrive until Christmas day, with no real indication of why it had been ordered.

I am very disappointed by the site 1001 maquettes. I ordered a model of an aston martin on Friday afternoon at 5pm and the order was dispatched immediately. Having no news about the parcel a week later I contacted them and was informed that in fact they did not have it in stock! I was offered an alternative solution to the product, but it didn't suit me. So I asked for a refund. A week later I'm still waiting... in short they're very quick to debit but on the other hand updating their stock informing their customers and refunding them there's work there! 29-12-2014: still nothing on my account... 30-12-2014: that's it...thanks

The products offered are really many for all needs and of quality. In terms of assistance and information, the service is also of quality. The time elapsed between order and goods arrival considering that the payment is in advance goes a bit long. One criticism for the handling of missing products: the transformation of the value into a discount for a subsequent purchase does not seem correct to me especially in case incomplete orders are repeated.

Unsatisfactory response to damaged goods report. I ordered a Great Planes Giant Big Stik model aircraft which arrived with some damage to the rear of the fuselage. I reported the damage with photographs of both model and packaging and asked 1001model kits for their comments. Having paid over £300 for the model which was to be a special Christmas present (which I had noted on my order) I imagined they would at least have offered to reduce the price as I had received damaged goods. Their reply follows: Dear Sir, I am deeply sorry for the damage. Unfortunately we are located in France and have no solution for repairs in the UK. I suggest that you repair it yourself, this should not be too complicated. Best regards, -- Customer service UK buyers beware.

Poor service I ordered some photo-etch details on December 3, and it has not arrived yet as of Dec.23. Not only were the shipping charges higher than they should have been for such an item (and higher than their website advertised) but to take at least three weeks to arrive is unacceptable. I could have purchased from a company in Australia that I've bought from before and had it here in a week. Really disappointed. 12/30 - still have not arrived. Cancelling order.

The rest was perfect

Wide choice of models (including models that are sometimes hard to find) - Kit prices a little higher than average. Careful shipping and packaging - Delivery times a little long. Site to be recommended.
