Package conforms to order, packaging and tracking very good. Only downside: relatively long lead time (almost 2 weeks) even though the items were available... point to improve

It is ultimately just a ""word-of-mouth". It simply collects an order and passes it on to the manufacturer. In my case the order referred to an Italian site the product arrived after a few more days from France. Also found the Victory then on the official Revell site in the online shop at just over $25 practically bought on an Italian site to pay three times as much. Next time I will be more careful

I find that compared to other competing sites the prices are abnormally high (see for example the Heller Royal Sun 1100 sold at nearly 60% more than normal (among others)). In addition lead times are very long (allow 3 weeks) and moreover items advertised as available are not always proof of a poorly monitored stock situation;Taking OUPS as an example is a tip to follow. Frustrating organization for a model builder looking for accessories to improve basic kits. After 15 days of waiting, I finally finished the model in progress before receiving these famous accessories.

I have been waiting 6 weeks for my item I have nothing yet. I have paid in advance. Finally after 7 email they reply saying that it is a fault of the supplier and they are still waiting for the product. This is strange because on the stock of 1001modellbau it says that the item is more than 15 and 25 ouf stock and available. So i like this will take many months i hope they will refund my money. What would 1001modellbau think if they had to wait months for their money? That can't be right!

Very well taken care of, I asked myself that it will not be the last, although now I select the models to assemble according to a criterion of placing them by theme.

Takes too long on delivery Supposed to be delivered from the States and found out that was shipped in France. Took 15 days, cost 1.5 € but i was charged $4. Besides that, I'm happy with the product.

Hello Silvia, Some of our products are shipped from the USA, others are shipped from Europe. This is why the shipment delay can vary, but it is specified for each product. The shipment costs by letter are always at least of 4€, except for France. Best regards, The 1001modelkits team

the colors correspond exactly to the models with the corresponding numbers, and they look great. What's more, you can get them for less.

This site is a real landmark for enthusiasts, who can find what is no longer available in physical shops..... Shipping is fast, even if the charges seem a bit expensive. To be recommended

Failed to deliver, refund eventually received. I ordered a decal set 31st January. 11 days later received an email to say item not yet dispatched but that it would be posted within the next few days. This was not acceptable to me so I email back requesting the order be cancelled and my money refunded. 4 Days later I receive an email to say my item had now been mailed. I again replied to say my order had been cancelled. On 23rd Feb I had neither received my refund or the product that had allegedly posted to me so I opened a dispute via Paypal. A refund was then received the following day. Very poor communication throughout - not a happy buying experience.

Quite happy for all purchases except the first time when the figurines were indicated as being in stock when they were not and I had to order other different ones and not necessarily what I was interested in. Stocks run out very quickly and some items take a long time to be restocked. I trust the site to

I benefited from free delivery. Fortunately, the products on offer are among the most expensive on the market.

when I placed my first order, all the models were in stock, but when they were delivered much later, one model was missing, which led me to place another order and incur additional costs, all due to poor stock management.

WELL RECEIVED MY ORDER QUICKLY BUT FORTUNATELY I'M USED TO MAKING MODELS BECAUSE 2 OUT OF 3 ARE EITHER IN RUSSIAN OR ALL IN ENGLISH . MOREOVER, WITH EACH ASSEMBLY ON EACH PAGE THERE ARE NO COLORS INDICATED ON THE PARTS? REFER TO THE PACKAGING? NOT HABIT! I'LL BE HESITATING ON THE NEXT CDES!? TOO SIMPLE AND COMPLICATED AT THE SAME TIME?

I ordered on January 17th. I was debited on January 17. 5 calendar days (3 working days) later, on January 22, I received an e-mail stating that your order no. 32571 had been dispatched and that you would be receiving it shortly. On January 31, there was no delivery notice, no delivery, no news. Your telephone service does not answer you are unreachable. I expect a return from you within 24 hours and a commercial gesture on these 2 orders which total more than 340€ TTC. Cordia

Order 32661 dated January 21, 2014. The kit arrived on February 6 after a full 16 days despite being marked as immediately available and shipped with DHL. Above all, communications with the customer are deficient: responses to my numerous e-mails about the status of the order have always arrived several days late. One does not run an e-commerce site this way: a customer should be informed promptly especially if his shipment is delayed for any reason.
