I think you should show what the product looks like in the box (figurines) because I'm a bit disappointed by the quality of the molding-I didn't know this brand. It's not your fault. I'll certainly recommend other professionals.

The item is no longer available on the 4th day after confirmed receipt of payment. A replacement or voucher is offered. I only need this particular item and have declared my withdrawal from the purchase contract. Since 1001 modellbau cannot fulfill their part of the contract according to their mail, I expect the full amount already paid including shipping costs back.

Not truthful about inventory? When I ordered the product it was stated it was in stock, two weeks later I received notification the product was shipped - I have still not received the product. Their are either very disorganized or not truthful about their inventory. My order was two masking sets that would fit into an envelope and their shipping fees where extremely high. I wanted the product so I moved forward. Other vendors had the same product, lower cost and lower shipping but were truthful about delivery time (that would be sooner than this experience). Next time, I will go with the other vendors. Update - Feb 21, 2021 and still have not received the product - ordered Jan 31, 2021 Update: Feb 26, 2021 Received the package. It is an Eduard masking kit. They do say that on their site, but I missed that..my fault. I have ordered from Eduard direct in the past, about the same price but far lower shipping cost and delivery was much faster.

12 days to process the order then postage time also. Not acceptable. I thought I was buying from a Spanish company but it is in France. I looked for a Spanish company to speed up postage and after the order was placed I find it is France which is not a problem but 12 days to process the order!!!! Cheaper and quicker postage to buy from UK supplier. Not happy.

My first order arrived incomplete with products I had not ordered. But the reaction was quick after my complaint and I'm waiting for a parcel to arrive.

I had bought the "Pirates of the Caribbean"" as a supplement to a ship model. Of the 48 figures in the set, only 12 were different. In other words, four figures of each type. Putting four captains next to four pirate brides on the deck doesn't really work. Unfortunately, the figures were also very poorly cast. Burrs everywhere and not very detailed. I would have expected more for the price! What a pity...

Correct order but the shipment of a padded A5 envelope could have been sent by registered mail. Delivery by Mondial Relais is a disaster. Delivery time too long and unprofessional service.

The order arrived two months late, it is true that what I expected arrived and it was in good condition, but I don't think I will buy again with such long delivery times.

I was missing a little pot of Revell contacta glue. Too bad! I'm also disappointed by the acrylic paint. Otherwise, the model is perfect.

Hello. Everything went well from order to delivery. However, I am not satisfied with the assembly instructions, as some existing parts are not listed. There are no instructions for the front mast. I'm also contacting Heller to let them know what I think. This is the first time I've encountered this problem on a large number of models. Have a nice day. Cordi

it's all well and good to offer special offers, but you have to take the competition into account. in principle, that's what drives everyone forward, knowing how to compete on much more than just the products you sell. that's the golden rule, especially as you're pretty well supplied in terms of products !!!! It's your choice and I respect it....... Bonne continu

has a lot of products, BUT... has a lot of products, unbearably unintuitive however. Searched for something and it doesn't show up, instead the results are rammed with random crap nothing to do with what I seached for, when later I'm browsing and the thing I was looking for is there, huge pain in the ass trying to find anything in particular on this site.

I ordered from 3 stores at the same time on the same day (Monday). One store delivered on Thursday, one on Saturday and this parcel is due to arrive on Monday. All via DHL. I personally think that's too long.

Communication problem when we call we always get the answering machine. Small delivery problems despite the price of chrononopost offered. The delivery took place after the planned date because I was worried about the follow-up by telephone.

Very disappointed with the long delay in delivery. The cars purchased are not what they looked like in the publicity photos, they are not replicas but plastic mountable elements. Huge price for something that is not worth it.

Slow and cumbersome fulfillment The attraction is the huge range of products. They are not discounted and I have never been asked for a Paypal fee before. Two items shown as in stock turned out not to be, this was irritating and delayed processing of my order. You are not told the supplier is in France which will obviously impact delivery time and cost. All in all three weeks to deliver. Only useful if you cannot find the products elsewhere.

At the moment I ordered two times and both came within relative short time after the orders were placed. In the past there were a few minor difficulties but they were rectified. I'm confident enough to know that if I were to place a new order, that the company will send it in a short amount of time. The only thing I find a bit dissapointing about the shop, is their price range for model kits. I mean the prices never stay the same. For example, when I buy a model kit at a price of € 24.99 9without shipping costs, the next week this price is suddenly € 37,99, for the same model kit. So prices never stay exactly as they are. If a model kit is on sale, then it's understandable. But if they have a certain positive inventory, they should keep the prices the same. Weither it's € 37,99 or less.
