8€ for shipping to wait 1 week before receiving my model is really unacceptable. Product that was marked available on the site but 5 days later I was told that the product was missing. I think that with all this I should have had a refund of at least 40%. On those if there is no refund I would no longer recommend you and you would have a bad advertisement. Au rev

the stock of articles is not in conformity, which means that delivery times are longer. It is also regrettable that you leave references that no longer exist, and that in the boxes of model tanks Italeri (Panzer 3) there are no decals. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, but I am deeply disturbed by this unexpected delay. Yours faithfully Monsignor Patr

Funny story. I order an item that seems to be in stock. I place the order and pay. So far so good. 3 days later I receive an e-mail telling me that the item has to be delivered because it's out of stock. Then a message that the collis has arrived at 1001maquettes. 7 days later 3 messages that the collis has been sent and that the tracking nr will be sent again. 4 days later still no nr. I contact customer service who confirm the shipment and the trans[carrier. They told me that the tracking number was not available. So I contacted the carrier by e-mail and in less than 30 minutes I had the number and confirmation that the shipment had not been made on August 4 as announced by 1001maquettes but that the collis had been given to the carrier on August 6 to arrive at my house on August 8. So I'm wondering about 1001 maquettes' adherence to deadlines and the camouflage practices employed, but after a long wait (3 weeks) I've got my model. By way of comparison, I had to order a piece from another site that didn't charge me for postage (for a collis worth less than the model) and miraculously, the day after I placed the order, I got my collis ... which calls for a certain rethinking of the quality of service.

So everything went wrong. The delivery came a week later than was announced. I ordered 3 1m long wooden slats. These were sent in a 1m x 40cm x 1cm package. This had been bent 2 times. There was nothing on the package. No ""please do not bend"" or ""fragile. The end of the story was that I had lots of small wooden sticks. I wrote a direct mail with photos. Then I asked in ""Lifechat"" what was going to happen now. ""We will contact you when the mail has been processed. "" Sorry but who sends thin wooden strips in such a lousy package? So far there has been no response from 1001.

In spite of some comments on the rather long delivery times I had decided not to rely on them and I was wrong... I placed my order on 3005, today is 1906 and I still haven't received my order, which has been in process since 0206. One item is unavailable - replaced by a credit note - but why not send the rest of the order as soon as possible? In short, really disappointed first and last order at 1001maquettes (and too bad for the credit note...). A site I wouldn't recommend to anyone.

Good company, but suffers from slow shipping and customer service response. Good company, that shipped my item well protected. However, one item was out of stock, and it took them around two weeks to let me know. In that same time, I placed orders with their competitors, got notification of shipping and received my order. When I inquired about the delay, it took a couple of days to get a response. They need to tighten up these areas to really be first class. That said, depending on the item and my need, I would consider ordering from them again.

It is ultimately just a ""word-of-mouth". It simply collects an order and passes it on to the manufacturer. In my case the order referred to an Italian site the product arrived after a few more days from France. Also found the Victory then on the official Revell site in the online shop at just over $25 practically bought on an Italian site to pay three times as much. Next time I will be more careful

I find that compared to other competing sites the prices are abnormally high (see for example the Heller Royal Sun 1100 sold at nearly 60% more than normal (among others)). In addition lead times are very long (allow 3 weeks) and moreover items advertised as available are not always proof of a poorly monitored stock situation;Taking OUPS as an example is a tip to follow. Frustrating organization for a model builder looking for accessories to improve basic kits. After 15 days of waiting, I finally finished the model in progress before receiving these famous accessories.

I have been waiting 6 weeks for my item I have nothing yet. I have paid in advance. Finally after 7 email they reply saying that it is a fault of the supplier and they are still waiting for the product. This is strange because on the stock of 1001modellbau it says that the item is more than 15 and 25 ouf stock and available. So i like this will take many months i hope they will refund my money. What would 1001modellbau think if they had to wait months for their money? That can't be right!

Failed to deliver, refund eventually received. I ordered a decal set 31st January. 11 days later received an email to say item not yet dispatched but that it would be posted within the next few days. This was not acceptable to me so I email back requesting the order be cancelled and my money refunded. 4 Days later I receive an email to say my item had now been mailed. I again replied to say my order had been cancelled. On 23rd Feb I had neither received my refund or the product that had allegedly posted to me so I opened a dispute via Paypal. A refund was then received the following day. Very poor communication throughout - not a happy buying experience.

Order 32661 dated January 21, 2014. The kit arrived on February 6 after a full 16 days despite being marked as immediately available and shipped with DHL. Above all, communications with the customer are deficient: responses to my numerous e-mails about the status of the order have always arrived several days late. One does not run an e-commerce site this way: a customer should be informed promptly especially if his shipment is delayed for any reason.

While I have to say I always had a great experience shopping with you, I was surprised when I had recommended your site to a relative who purchased the 1/350 Uss The Sullivans, intending to give it to me as a Christmas gift. He was told it was in another warehouse and charged his card the 59.00 for the kit. After two weeks he had not heard anything and tried to e-mail you but did not recive a reply. He also noted the price had dropped to 29.00$. Since he did not get a response to his emails he cancelled the order. Thanks for ""listening"" Phil
