In the first instance I did not receive my order and after weeks of complaints I finally received it perfectly.

1001hobbies offers an excellent selection for miniature model builders, the rating falls out because of the rather long delivery time, despite availability. Otherwise a really great store!

good site reasonably much to find, but still miss some in terms of Tamiya cars. and the prices are also on the reasonably high side, except for the offers. buy reasonably some if it is really an offer.

The delivered item itself is great. The communication, due to the late delivery, still leaves a lot of room for improvement...

Dear customer Thank you for your comment. We would like to emphasize that customer satisfaction is our priority. Therefore, your feedback is very important to us and we take it very seriously. Indeed, products that are not in stock are ordered directly from the supplier, which explains the longer delivery times. But this is always indicated on our product, as here, as it is indicated available in 15 days. Thanks for your confidence in 1001Hobbies

Hello, I don't understand why I have to pay a customs tax for a large order but not for a small one. Whereas on other sites I never pay any for the same type of order. cdr

Product received with detached parts (detached wheels). I had to cancel the payment card since it was linked to the shipment a fee to be paid by mail to receive the product.... in the post office to pick up the product I was notified of the non-existence of such tas.

It wasn't clear that something was out of stock. So I would order, end up waiting a month, then have to ask for a credit. Happened twice on the same original order. In fact, I don't think I have ever received the masks for the Revell Wiking seaplane. Frustrating. Plus, the turn around for email requests is several days.

I found it difficult to identify the model of the color contained in the bottle because a label was applied right on the identification code.

Good product, reasonable delivery time, but shipping costs were almost 2x the value of the item. It would be nice if regular postal services were used for printing: sending 1 set of decals this way is now costly AND environmentally polluting....

Ordered paint specifically as the web site (and my order details) stated it was in stock. Two weeks after order I enquired about the delay, an update was told 1001Hobbies was still getting some paint from their supplier (I.e. not “in stock”). Three weeks after order I requested a refund as there was no progress, but was told that a refund was not possible as my order was now being compiled. Order was finally delivered more than 4 weeks after the order was made (and after I had given up waiting and purchased the paint from elsewhere.). I was not impressed!
Response from 1001hobbies
Hello, Thank you for your comment. Your opinion is very important to us. Thank you for taking this time. We are terribly sorry for this succession of mishaps. I see that the paints ordered are indeed usually in stock, but there must have been a shortage with a longer than usual delay. We apologise again. Have a nice day,

Product was poorly packaged and one item was damaged. It appeared to be damaged before it was shipped. They nevered offered to refund anything but a small $14 shipping fee. Pretty sad

I liked the product but this was a gift and came in a box with a picture of the item on the outside. My wife came home before me and saw the box. I was really frustrated by this. The product was fine. Really nice, in fact. But I didn't get the option to select that it was a gift and I assumed it would come in a normal brown box. This was pretty disappointing.

Website is fine but aftersale is not good. Bought airbrush that did not work properly. But they could not do anything for me because the airbrush was used once and then the article could not be returned.Strange because you have to try such an article once to find out that the product does not function properly. I have now just ordered new parts elsewhere at my own expense. I don't think I will be buying anything here anytime soon, too bad because they have quite a lot of items.

The problem is that I like all the models you have, to charge fast, but it's been almost two months and I have not received the order yet, when it will arrive, I will not even want to do it, for this reason I will avoid buying any more product, and disengage the delivery once delivered to the carrier.

Nothing was missing, but the plastic inside the box was broken. As if it had been opened before.

The items are advertised as being in stock, at the supplier's, yes, but not at 1001 hobbies, resulting in a rather long lead time, which is a shame, as is the case with many companies.
