They have taken a long time to send. And they repeat the messages asking for a transfer that from the first moment I already informed them of what was happening and they keep repeating it, it seems that they do not read them.

Too complex to offer something to someone: the parcel arrives, but in the sender's name. I'm still waiting for a reply to my chat and e-mail requests for help. It's a shame, the catalog is great...

I've been waiting 30 days. Part of my order is still missing. It's pretty amateurish.

Serious company, only note is that, perhaps due to the particular time, the delivery time was much longer than estimated.

The stated delivery times are largely disregarded. These are not necessities so this is not a real problem. I would say that honesty pays more than claimed efficiency.

I was not informed that my order for £291 was not being sent from the uk warehouse, but it was coming from franc , which then cost me £ 63 in inport tax and handling
charges on top of my £291 if I had known I would not have made the purchase

The order was delivered quickly but due to a problem with the item ordered (an important part of the model was missing) I was unable to contact customer service online. No reply to my e-mail....

Good value for money. Pity that unavailable products are displayed in search results. Order was over 1 1/2 weeks in transit, which I really find too long, tried to contact, no options except email (which was not responded to) and do not hide behind "that's because corona" because my order via another puzzle website, which was also delivered by postnl.nl did arrive after 1 day ... So moderately enthusiastic...

I was specifically looking for a dodge viper body for my electric rc car, and came across many nitro versions I thought I had finally found the right one with you, but was sent a nitro version This was a bit of a disappointment.The shipping and communication were otherwise very well organized, only I understood the French emails very poorly because I do not speak French

I received the package damaged and crushed. Compared to your shipping rates, which I find a bit expensive, your packaging is not rigid enough. As a result, the products inside are a bit crushed for items I was planning to give as a birthday present in 1 week's time (I hope there won't be any unpleasant surprises when I unwrap the gift).

Initially not a positive experience, made payment but did not receive an order, later seemed to have been a bug in the system. Unreachable by phone, repeatedly emailed, but that did not provide a solution. Finally got someone on the line, who solved everything nicely. Too bad my son didn't get the promised item to make up for it. Car is super cool though!

The package came in a box 3 times the size of the package to be received, and, even so, it arrived dented. I understand that with all the packaging it had, it had not been in transit, but was already packed with the blow. The order has to be placed without premium, approx. 10 days to arrive.

processing took too long, I placed an order on the site for items declared to be in stock, and in the end half my order was out of stock. 3 months later they warned me that one of the items was unavailable for an indefinite period and issued me a credit note. when I received the parcel, two items were missing and there was no order summary sheet inside. It was only later that I realized they were missing, and with the waiting time I thought I'd ordered the 2 missing items elsewhere.

Satisfied with the products, but the delivery did take a very long time. Was beginning to think I had booked on a fake account and could whistle for the products ordered. An email that there is a delay will not be bad for delivery problems.

I placed the order on 01/29/2021 and it consisted of this item along with two others, which they did have in stock. After more than 15 days, I requested the shipment and they explained to me over the phone that the P-38 armament item would not be received from the supplier until March. I then demanded that they send me the other two, and you proceeded to divide the initial order into two parts. I finally completed receipt of the order a few days ago, almost two months after the initial order. Very poor communication and transparency on your part. I am sorry for this.

Mr. Lucas Diaz, Thank you for your comment. As explained in our email exchanges, your product coming from England has been delayed due to Brexit and Covid-19. We regret this situation and apologize.

I found the 1001hobbies site very easy to navigate & when I saw a kit that I was really wanting to purchase at a good price, I saw this one.
I completed the purchase, including opening an account, very quickly on 3rd March, & waited for delivery.
As this is the most expensive kit that I have ever bought, (I have in the past with other suppliers, purchased & paid the cost of the kit as advertised on the website).
There was nothing on the order form I could find that informed me of any other costs. (billing informed me that tax was included within the price).
After 5 working Days, I contacted 1001hobbies by Email for an update & was informed that it would be shipped within 2 to 3 Working days. (that was fine).
I tried using the Tracking Facility on the website (typing in my Order Number), but that didn't work.
On the 17th March I received an Email from the Carrier informing me that the package was on its way.
On the 23rd March, I received a letter from "Parcel Force" informing me that a VAT charge + Clearance Fee was required to release this package.
I Emailed 1001hobbies & tried to use the "Support" facility on the website.
This only informed me that it would be answered "soon", (other websites can have an online chat available).
As I didn't receive an answer by 24th March, I contacted "Parcel Force" & paid the extra charges.
The kit was delivered on the 25th March.
What an excellent model, really pleased with it.
My reason for only giving 3 Stars is due to the "Not being aware the extra charges required to have this delivered",& taking 16 Working Days for it to be delivered.
I have received an Email from 1001hobbies on the 26th March, informing me that due to BREXIT, orders over GBP132 are subject to taxes requested by customs.
There is NOTHING that I could find on the Purchase Order informing me of this, even though in the same Email informs me that this information is indicated on the summary of my basket.
I have since tried to find this & still cannot find it.
My comment to 1001hobbies is, Please make this visible in UPPER CASE & HIGHLIGHTED, as you do for the "COVID HEADLINE ON DELIVERIES".
As I know this information now, I will take this into account, if I use 1001hobbies again in the future.
