Overall a good experience. My only concern was the manner in which the item was packaged. It was not in a box, it simply had bubble wrap around it. To travel the distance it did without proper packaging is risky. Also the item could be plainly seen through the bubble wrap. I don't want my purchases visible to those who have no need of seeing it.

Ordered in early December but didn't arrive in time for Christmas. Probably mostly down to UK border chaos though and not your fault.

No problems in particular with the delivery and quality of the products, however, stickers were applied to the Tamiya cans that cover the label preventing the product's technical specifications from being read correctly.

It is unfortunate not to be able to make a serious follow-up of the shipment. Likewise the fulfillment of the estimated date of reception. The contact with you is relatively fluid, in one direction. But it does not offer valid answers.

Nothing wrong with it! But...bought three boxes of unknown brand Roden. Very bad...even with fine pliers parts break off, lots of flash( leftover plastic) bad fitting( lots of putty work) even the decals break and hardly stay on. Quickly looked at the other two boxes, looks the same. Reds is not recommended.

As a former customer, I'm happy with the delivery of the colors: desert yellow matte, dark earth matte, army green matte, airplane blue matte, which correspond to my expectations. As for the rest of the order, see the aluminium section. Thank you for resolving this problem quickly. SIMOS

I placed an order in November. The amount due was deducted from my account, but I haven't received anything. When I went to the 1001 hobbies website to find out the status of my order, surprise, it had been cancelled... Strange. I tried to contact the sales department by phone... I couldn't reach them. I finally sent an e-mail. I received the unpleasant surprise that I had to bring proof of payment. Fortunately, I was able to do so. Anyway, I finally received my order at the beginning of January, a few days ago. Not bad for an order placed in November.

Good product in itself, but it was a Christmas present and came unwrapped! Surprise not a success. A great pity.

It took a long time to prepare my order, and a can of paint was missing when I received it. I had to cry" to the after-sales service to get the missing paint before Christmas. Disappointed with the after-sales service but I ended up getting everything, so I'm leaving a few stars...

Delivery time too long for an item reported available with immediate dispatch. No response to e-mail inquiries. No telephone response to numerous calls (supposedly because of too many calls, not a credible reason).

Product packaging was okay. The delivery time took forever and totally missed the occasion (Christmas).
I ordered 6 weeks in advance and was told it would be in stock within 3 weeks. So 3 weeks from in stock to arriving is terrible.

Product was only two months longer to receive than quoted. Oh well. The event I was going to use the product was several weeks in the past. Guess I will be good for next year.

Long, long wait for the package scheduled for Christmas, but it didn't arrive until the 26th, so Christmas was missed for the person who was supposed to get his Christmas present the same day.

Hello, Thank you for your email. Some products are indeed shipped within several weeks to our suppliers as indicated on the site, which was the case on your order. However, we are also available when the product has been shipped and is in transit. Thank you for your interest!

Correct condition of the boxes despite the lack of packaging. I paid extra for gift wrapping, which was not done either. Very average.

Ordered on November 13, I had no news until December 22. As a result, I had to buy other gifts to cope. As the kids would say: "That's not cool!

It's a mess to find the right paints according to the references indicated on the model's instructions.

Hello, my experience has not been very good, since I ordered a doll on November 8 q was in stock and they were going to send it to me 2 weeks later. When I saw that it did not arrive I sent an email and they told me that it would not arrive because there was no stock. After several emails I managed to get them to send it to me and it arrived on December 20th. For my part the experience has not been favorable. Best regards.

I did get what I ordered, but it took a long time and some reminders to get it. I had to ask for updates of what was happening to my order. Good price though, but the next time I might buy the same product to a higher price and get it at once, instead of being unsure of what is happening with my order.

Unfortunately the description differs from the item I received. According to the picture and (translated) description "Mr Mark Setter" "Mr Mark Softer" was advertised, but unfortunately I received "Mr Mark Softer Neo" and "Mr Mark Setter Neo". The original ones (without Neo) are unfortunately hard to get in Europe and I was hoping they would be available in their store.

The site isn't too bad, the navigation could be smoother, the orders on the other hand, are passable, especially on the paints, full of alarmist stickers on the danger of the product, so you can't see anything, which isn't the case on other model sites.

The package arrived on time but I paid to have the gift wrap done and they used a small sheet of paper and you can see everything inside.... I had to wrap it myself even though I paid for the gift wrap.... Otherwise everything was ok
