Product marked available but you are only informed after ordering that it is available from the supplier... Model box damaged due to fragile packaging ... Very long delivery times

Response from 1001hobbies
Hello, We sincerely regret your experience and would like to inform you of our processing times for this order. We would like to point out that there are two important concepts to consider when placing an order on our site: "Available" products: these products are in stock with our supplier and we order them for you. Products "Available - dispatched today": these products are in stock at our logistics warehouse in Isère and are dispatched the same day. After verification, here's what happened to your order: the F-22 Raptor was ordered from our supplier based in England. As such, the delivery time is 4 weeks, mainly due to customs clearance, which can be complicated. We apologize again for any inconvenience this may cause, and assure you that your opinion is very important to us. Sincerely, 1001hobbies

The item I was looking for was sold out everywhere, only 1001hobbies indicated they still had stock and could ship within one business day. Therefore, I ordered the item from 1001hobbies. But after ordering, it was indicated that the item had to be ordered from the supplier first. This took 3 weeks. All this time the website indicated they still had stock. I find this deception. Also never had a response to my question about the order.

Dear Customer, We regret your feedback and apologize for the delay in processing your order. You ordered a product with an extended delivery time. As a result, your order was dispatched as soon as the product was received in our logistics center.

As the figurines are not presented beforehand because we only see the box, depending on the brand, there are many of the same break and we don't know if they are only cavalrymen or infantrymen except for the Waterloo brand ... I had to wait a month to receive the parcel. So today, I don't have enough infantrymen for my project and I have to place another order ...

We take note of your comment and will pass on your suggestions to our team in order to improve the presentation of the products on our site. Regarding the delivery time, we're sorry it took longer than expected. This may be due to delays in receiving the supplier's order, but we are committed to ensuring that this does not happen again.

Stuff was fine on the site, everything after was not fine. I received multiple emails that my ordered product was still in my mantle and therefore still needed to be ordered. This was never the case and only caused confusion. Therefore, I wanted to call your phone number, which thus did not work. Finally, I ordered this product from you since it was said that there would be an estimated delivery time of 7 days. Now I understand that Christmas complicated some things, but still then a mention that the delivery times will be different during the holidays would be quite nice.

The items were well packed and in good condition upon arrival although neither kit was shrink wrapped. The order took almost a month to arrive. I did not realize the kits were coming directly from Europe. The price was not low enough to justify the long lead time. Tracking information from France was vague at best.

- feeling of a scam: at the time of purchase, all products were in stock. However, they send with the order confirmation (editable, by the way) a badly written clarification in Spanish, indicating that the bag can be divided due to lack of stock, assuming additional costs.
- The expected time of availability of the missing product was increasing instead of decreasing.
- After almost 20 days of waiting, I ask Paypal to refund the money and cancel the purchase, providing all the evidence - Paypal communicates with the seller and only then and instantly send all the products (including the one that still had 2 weeks left to be available again).

It's a pity that there are no instructions in French. The codes used (numbers, dotted lines) are not self-explanatory (as they are in a foreign language), nor are the assembly instructions, making the model difficult to assemble. I certainly wouldn't order a more complex model, as it would be very difficult to assemble without instructions in French.

Thank you for your feedback! Indeed, for some products like the ones you ordered, the instructions are only available in other languages.
