So after a late delivery I am missing an item in the order. In the parcel there was no information about the missing product. I contacted them a first time after 15 days and still no answer from them. I've just contacted them again. To see for the s

I ordered a Jeep Wrangler in Nov 16. First I was told that the product was out of stock, even though it was advertised as being in stock on the site. I then received a discount voucher equivalent to the amount of the purchase so that I could order it at a later date. When it was available again, I realized that the coupon was actually worth 0€... :-( After contacting the customer service department, the problem was solved, but I realized that the coupon didn't count towards the shipping costs, i.e. 7€ for a purchase of 22! Not finding it normal to have to pay postage a second time, I receive a second coupon valid for postage this time. I placed another order and received a free figurine. After making the payment, I realized that the figurine had in fact been billed to me! Totally discouraged, I finally accepted the slight surcharge. I finally received my Jeep in

Product conforms to the order and the delivery time was respected. I appreciated the message informing me of availability at the collection point, which is becoming more widespread. On the other hand, which explains the low overall score, the packaging is particularly defective: fragile cardboard, leading to partial crushing of the parcel, closing of the parcel with unprofessional green adhesive tape not suitable for long-distance transport, leaving access to the i

Product ordered and never received. I was always the one who had to ask for news: the company is not responsive at all in responding to emails. Fortunately paid by PayPal and therefore refunded. I waited over a month to write this review to give the company a chance to fix the problem--not even an apology from them.... I rarely leave reviews but in this case I was taken for a ride so it seems only fair to let them know.

For a basic order (all the items ordered were supposed to be in stock) it took me 6 phone calls and several messages to get the situation sorted out, as the site announced that the order was being prepared but not dispatched. The reason given was that certain products were not in stock (I repeat that everything was in stock at the outset). After more than a month, the order was finally received. That's a long time! I'm not a grudge-holder, I'll place another order to see if I can get it.

After 20 days from the accepted order and 2 ignored inquiries I am notified that a box is no longer available and that it would finally be shipped. A Christmas gift for a child thus became a gift for Epiphany! The reorder of the missing box was processed beyond the expected delivery time and with package thrown inside the condominium garden....

I had the opportunity to place two orders on the site with great difficulty. Both times my children gave me a gift card for my birthday and for Christmas. Each time I had to enter the coupon number, I got an error message saying that the coupon was invalid or something! So to be able to validate my order I had to contact "" 1001 MAQUETTES""? This is where another big problem arises for me. The service is unreachable by phone when you send an email: no answer!!!. After 15 days of calls, we manage to get someone on the phone or in chat! Miraculously, we managed to integrate the coupon that had supposedly been deactivated, and finally we were able to validate the order... Personally, I'd never order from this site again, because the customer service is deplorable and the delivery times are not respected.

the model supplied has no instructions in French, only in English and Japanese. For a 12-year-old, this is not at all practical!!! even with the assembly sketches. A phone call to 1001 maquettes confirmed the absence of French instructions and the impossibility of obtaining them. I don't recommend this site and I personally wouldn't repeat the experience of a new one.

No reply I had ordered a set of decals, and received an email that my order had been processed good so far. On this email was my order number, and a link to check your order status. Here's where things changed: I tried the link, and got an error, telling me my order number was not correct. After a few tried, I went to the homepage/contact us link. I sent an email with my info and order number, yet have not heard anything back as of yet. Then, the following day, I received this email asking for a rating. It would do well to ask about the customer experience after some attempt at customer service was made.

Dear customer, Apparently you created a second account, which explains why you could not access to the information about the order made with your first account. We apologize for the inconvenience due to this misunderstanding. Best regards, 1001modelkits Customer Service

Impossible to hold silver paint (N°11) on plastic. For the other colors, acrylic paint leaves traces on the brush and dries very quickly (perhaps you need to add an additive like white spirit or alcohol?). No problems with dispatch

Goods received from France after approx. 1 week. Unfortunately, it was not clear anywhere that it came from abroad. In addition, there was also a wrong article that was even cheaper than the one I ordered. I received no reply to 3 emails, but the other items I ordered were OK.

When I placed my order, a figurine was supposedly offered, but I later realized that this figurine had been invoiced, despite a message sent to this effect. This figurine, which I had not ordered, was not removed, but was indeed invoiced.

If I hadn't paid via PayPal, I would probably still be waiting for my shipment. Order dated 06.12.2016. No response to my emails either. Only after contacting PayPal did I receive a response. The shipment (letter) was delivered on 22.12.2016.

Even after the second request for a few articles, there has been no response to date. LNF is not a common abbreviation in model making... not even outside Germany! The descriptions of the articles are extremely poor. It would be important to me if I knew what I was buying... Describing a Microflyer as unequipped when probably only the transmitter is missing is extremely clumsy! Sorry, I am also used to German quality in the description...

Order placed on 91116. After 3 weeks, your order is in progress. I send an email via the 1001 website. No reply. I phone a week later. I haven't received my email... Error""référenceme""... Why didn't you realize that the order was blocked? The parcel is delivered to the relay after a month... I haven't opened the box, it's for a gift but it's not much for 6.

The model I ordered was exactly what I expected. However, the package was not sufficiently protected. The cardboard box arrived totally crushed and the model slightly damaged.

I received a delivery and the packaging, which was not damaged, contained only air. There is also no contact person at the company, you always have to address the company as 1001 modellbau. You have to pay in advance and then you only get air, the EU has come a long way in Europe, something that didn't exist 30 years ago. I can do without such a Europe. I paid over 30 EURO for air from France. Now I have received the same model in Germany with postage for 1495 euros. I will never order anything from abroad again.
