Response from 1001hobbies
Hello Sir,
We sincerely regret this review and apologize for this situation.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the product ELASTIC RIGGING SPOOL (SUITABLE FOR 1:72 / 1:350/1:700) was ordered from our supplier the day after your order. However, due to a delay from the supplier, of which our logistics service was not informed in time, the shipment took longer than expected. Some suppliers prefer to wait until they have a larger order before shipping products, which led to a shipment within 2 weeks, instead of the contractual week.
We thank you for your understanding and remain at your disposal for any further questions.
Sincerely,
1001hobbies

3: Hello Sir,\n\nWe sincerely regret your review and apologize for this incident.\n\nWe would like to remind you that your order was placed on 27/02/2025 at 11:37. This order included two products with a longer delivery time (shipped within 2 to 4 weeks, as indicated on the product sheet).\n\nOn 26/02/2025, we took the initiative to split your order, at no additional cost, in order to first send the products in stock and defer the shipment of the two concerned products: "Brunswick Napoleonic Cavalry: 12 Mounted Riders" and "Dutch/Belgian Artillery 1815". These two items were ordered from our supplier in England, and it is not uncommon for delays to occur regarding the delivery of these orders.\n\nIndeed, being a small business, 1001hobbies does not have a warehouse large enough to store all 200,000 references available on our site.\n\nWe thank you for your understanding and remain at your disposal for any further questions.\n\nBest regards,\n1001hobbies

Well-made site, many products, very kind customer service but a month to receive the product is really too much, if you didn't have it available it would be better not to give the option to purchase it, my opinion is absolutely subjective

Hello, We regret your comment and apologize for this incident. We would like to clarify some details about the information on our website. There are two states to distinguish: 'Available': the product is in stock with our supplier and requires a lead time before shipping. 'Available - shipped today': the product is in stock in our warehouse and can be shipped immediately. Unfortunately, the BMW M635CSI 1:24 plastic model car could not be ordered from our supplier. Therefore, our customer service has shipped the available products and has taken your change request into account as soon as possible. We remain at your disposal for any additional information. Sincerely, 1001hobbies

I am half satisfied. I did receive my order even though it took time. However, who decided to stick a label on the Tamiya paint pots? Great, now we have a color hat and no longer the label with the reference. Just because the color is visible doesn't mean it's not a specific reference that doesn't dilute like another.... Really, I find this completely useless. It ruins my shopping experience!
Translated reviews
Response from 1001hobbies
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue, which has been a long-standing problem with our Tamiya paint supplier. For years, we have been asking them to reposition the labels so that the paint number is visible, allowing you to easily distinguish between two shades of gray or white. Unfortunately, they insist that this label is mandatory and complies with CE standards to be sold in France.
We fully understand the difficulties caused by this labeling arrangement, and we are sincerely sorry.
Best regards,

Game damaged, ordering system a bit weird with products available but available. I don't think I'd recommend this place. Having said that, because not everything is black and white, good customer service was reactive in sending me part of my order (even though it was damaged).

Response from 1001hobbies
Hello,
We apologize for the inconvenience.
We are still waiting for photos of the damage to the game so that we can provide you with an appropriate response.
In addition, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that we are an SME and that our warehouse does not allow us to stock the 200,000 references offered on our site. That's why we emphasize two key concepts:
Available products: These items need to be ordered from our suppliers before they can be dispatched.
Products available - dispatched today: These items are in stock in our warehouse and can be dispatched immediately.
The product concerned is often a rare item or at the end of a manufacturer's pre-order period, which means that it has been specially ordered for you.
We regret any confusion and remain at your disposal should you have any questions.
Yours faithfully

Package was flimsy and not up to the task, one of the bottles of paint had damage to the cap, thankfully it did not spill or the whole contents of the order would have been destroyed. I had to be transferred to another bottle immediately. Also, the whole order was about 10 days later than first notified.

Hello,

Products marked "available for dispatch today" are in stock in our logistics warehouse, and are dispatched within three days.

Ordered a Gunpla model. They have quite a few in the store but a lot of them are actually in backorder meaning you've no idea when you'll get them. Keep in mind that this store is based in France so shipping to the Netherlands was quite a bit more expensive. Otherwise the actual delivery was fine. My item took three workdays to arrive.
All and all not really a remarkable experience. I'd only recommend them for Gunpla kits that aren't available anywhere else and that they have in actual stock.

Hello, We apologize for the delay in processing your order. In fact, all the products in your order were in "available, shipped today" status, with the exception of the M5A1 with 4 figures, which was available but needed to be ordered from our supplier. The delay you noted therefore corresponds to the delivery time between our supplier and our logistics depot. We would also like to remind you that there are two concepts to take into account on our site: "Product available": means that the item is referenced on our site but must be ordered from our supplier. "Product available, dispatched today": means that the item is in stock in our logistics warehouse and can be dispatched within 3 days. We apologize for any confusion and remain at your disposal for any further information. Sincerely, 1001hobbies
