For the items of my interest there is a large assortment but several are sold out and there is no telling when they will arrive. Many there is no photo . Some difficulty in some items to understand the scale.Answers to questions not fast.

The search function is limited, difficult to find WW1 aircraft, for example.

I was told my item wasn’t available two day post purchase. They offered me a similar item and told me I would not pay the balance. We thought it was a good gesture. However the item they sent was on sale for the same price. So we did think we where mislead. Then it took days to post abscess held up st customs because it didn’t have the proper paperwork. When it did arrive it had one wrap of bubble wrap ! Just one layer fir a 10kg item that had done electrical components. Poor show 1001 !

I wish they would have shown on their site which country they were located in. I would not have ordered had I know they were outside the USA. I figure it took twice as long to get my item, and had I had an issue with it I would not have attempted to send it back to some overseas address. I guess live and learn..

No response to my emails. Only response in French language. Why no Dutch language on my e-mail? I do not know if I received the right flight simulator, I have contact here with Ikaris. Waiting for message from Aerofly, if not good, then back to 1001 hobbies.nl.

Accepting orders that you don't have in stock creates problems. This has happened to me twice now.

I didn't quite see the scale of the tank I bought. Too small for me. Sorry but I won't open it and I'll send it back to you without opening the box. That said, I'm quite happy with the rest. However, you did give me a. Wrong return delivery address. So not happy about that. But not happy at all

Quick delivery and order conformity were respected, but it's a pity that the paints offered as complements were not exhaustive, for example the color blue 56 was not present, even though it's the main one. And without having the model, it's difficult to know in advance.

Very good choice, but when I place orders close together, I pay twice for postage even though they are grouped together.

When you place the order, they give you an idea of how long it will take depending on the chosen option. Then it turns out that this is not the case, not even by approximation. Tell the truth, period.

I RECEIVED MY SECOND ORDER BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY FIRST ORDER WHICH WAS MADE ON JANUARY 25. I WAS TOLD MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT ON JANUARY 28 AND TO EXPECT DELIVERY ON FEB 10 THRU 15. THAT WAS NOT TRUE. I WAS ADVISED MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT OUT LAST WEEK (MARCH 1) BUT I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO TRACK IT. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELEIVE. AT THE END OF FEBRUARY I SENT AN E-MAIL TO 1001HOBBIES REQUESTING THAT MY ORDERS WERE TO BE CANCELLED AND MY PAYMENT REFUNDED. I WAS NOTIFIED A FEW DAYS LATER THAT MY SECOND ORDER WAS SENT OUT FOR DELIVERY AND A FEW DAYS AFTER THAT WAS TOLD THAT MY FIRST ORDER WAS SENT OUT. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANY ON LINE HOBBY SHOP PURSHACE. I DON'T THINK I WILL BE USING OR RECOMMENDING 1001HOBBIES IN THE FUTURE.

Hello, on the site, everything I ordered is available, I pay, it's cashed. And when I receive my order, you tell me it's complete when there are two items missing that you give me as unavailable for the moment... Maybe review the stocks and update... I'm still waiting for an answer to my email .......

All items were supposedly in stock. One item was not. This in itself is not serious. Impossible to get a refund, I was only offered a credit note. Delivery times are a little longer than on other sites.... It still leaves me with a bitter taste.

My parcel took too long to arrive. The first time was the deliveryman's fault, and even though the store was kind enough to send it back to me (that's why I'm giving you 2 stars and not 1) they weren't at all attentive to me. They kept telling me that it was promised that the parcel would arrive in a few days, but I just kept waiting and the parcel never arrived. I really missed the communication from the store. I had the impression that they didn't care and each person told me a different story. Up until the third week, no one told me that the delay was because you didn't have it in stock. If you'd given me this information beforehand, I'd have been more relaxed, but no, every day the answer was: don't worry, the parcel will arrive within 3 days. And so I waited 3 weeks.
Once I called for 1 hour and nobody answered. I understand that you can be busy but at least if you saw the calls, you could call me afterwards or send me an email to reassure me and tell me where my parcel is.
The handling was very bad, which is a shame, because I have very bad memories of this purchase. This purchase was a real nightmare.

Nothing to say about the site. On the other hand, the delivery of my parcel took a very long time and this does not commit me to renewing an order!

The purchased kit (Amerigo Vespucci) with a price of over 1400€ is also available for 999€. Even if the seller is not responsible for the contents and quality of the kit, it is very much to be criticized that the deck planking, although described as walnut, is not walnut, that the included mahogany strips are not sufficient (I have already built many ships, also in museum quality, and have no above-average waste) and that the plans are somewhat often contradictory. Without really profound experience in building sailing ships, you can quickly despair. At least I received a voucher for 5 (in words: five) euros after a purchase of 1480€. There can be no complaints about the purchase process. But once again as a final assessment. 1001Hobbies is not responsible for the content and quality of the kit and the plans, but it is responsible for the clearly overpriced sales price.

A sufficient because one color ordered was not delivered and another was delivered twice. So the total number of jars was correct.
