There was a spray can of Tamiya TS17 missing. I reported that, but haven't gotten a response yet.

The models were a gift to my husband for his birthday so I payed the extra for them to be gift wrapped. However the gift wrap was a lot to be desired it looked liked they couldn’t be bothered so had to redo it. Otherwise quick and easy.

The items arrived, but communication about delivery left a lot to be desired.
If you call them outside of business hours it seems like they have been closed for two years.

Telephone service is unreachable, so lousy if you want to respond to your order. After returning to the mail, there is still no response after over a week. Bad service I think ... The order was delivered, unfortunately with a damaged box. Again, due to the aforementioned, I can not make contact.

The free shipping advertisement seems to be misleading because it does not explain when it applies and when it does not apply apart from the minimum purchase amount.

The carrier damages the packages, which is a shame and not the first time. We should think about changing carriers or ringing the bell.

If I have received the order mentioned in the Subject, I am extremely disappointed. Of the fifteen pots of Tamya color, only two are identified, and the others have no reference. As I'm not color-blind, I don't have any trouble distinguishing between green and yellow, but it's less obvious between different shades of the same color. A simple mark with a felt-tip pen would have sufficed and wasn't time-consuming. This was my first order and I'm afraid my last.

Hello and thank you for your feedback, which is very important to us. We are very sorry if your experience was not satisfactory. Concerning the availability of the article, it is generally indicated on our site: either it is "in stock" and available immediately", or "dispatched within XX days" in which case there is a little more waiting. Occasionally, a product is being restocked, in which case the lead time may be extended. In such a case, don't hesitate to contact our customer service department by e-mail at [email protected], who will be happy to answer you. Concerning the weight of the parcel, I'll pass on the information: indeed, a simple letter could have sufficed. Finally, concerning the choice of Mondial Relais, we can't do anything about it: it's a problem that concerns Mondial Relais and one of its relays that must have been saturated or closed, which forced you to change the address. Have a nice day!

It's a pity that this time, as the packaging was flexible, the poorly protected contents were crushed. I still recommend it.

Error in your stock, I would have liked to have been contacted rather than having to do it myself, worrying that I would receive nothing. No follow-up, it's a shame.

Hello and thank you for your message. We are very sorry about this situation. Indeed, when a supplier updates the availability of a product, and a fortiori when a product is unavailable, we do not receive any notification. We're currently thinking about a way of obtaining these updates to be more proactive towards our customers. Have a nice day!

Rather long delivery time, no information, difficult to contact seller and in the end one of the items was changed for another reference, certainly equivalent, but a little message would have been welcome. In short, first and last order with this seller.

Large assortment which is very positive, only because of different languages the description is not always clear. Furthermore, the delivery time is relatively long (considering what most Dutch shops can do) It is also a pity that you can not make a wish list or something for future orders. You have to keep looking everything up. Also customer contact is not good in terms of answering in the right language.

Hello, Deadlines met, but you have to remove the label stuck on the pot, when it does not tear off, to get the number of the pot. When you order 3 Tamiya X1 pots and 3 X18 pots, you need a lot of patience...

Hello, thank you for your message. Your comments are important to us. I see that indeed one of the products was on order and the shipment was in economy mode, which explains the longer delivery times. I am sorry that it did not live up to your expectations. Have a nice day.

So far I have received 3 out of 5 items that were ordered a voucher and credit note. I have sent an email however no response yet. Collector's items has arrived in less than mint packaging so generally unhappy and unimpressed. How can a pre order item be awaiting a restock? Don't write cheques you can't cash!

You had the parts I wanted in stock . It took 3 days short of a month to receive the parts. The parts were as presented and accurate. It is the delivery time that left me very disappointed

Everything went well when I ordered, but I was disappointed when I received it. All the safety labels are stuck on the reference of the paint cans. It's a shame to waste it like this, because your site is great.
