Corresponds to what is presented on the site. Surprised when I received it that it was not in a cardboard box but in bubble wrap.

This company has very good products which I would like to continue purchasing. The only thing that is encouraging me to additionally go else ware is the very long lead time from France.

Initially, I was very angry and frustrated with this company for the following reasons:
1. For a week my items had not been dispatched or processed despite the website stating they dispatch items within 48 hours.
2. Because of the delay the main item I had made the order for had sold out. I was issued a voucher to use at a later date on the website but customer care did sort this for me and issued a refund instead, rightly so.
4. I was under the impression the company was fom the UK as they use a UK domain name and website, but they are actually based in France. I was lucky to escape a customs charge.
It was a very stressful process because I felt the website was not very transparent. HOWEVER, the shipping was fairly quick from overseas, the items I did receive are fantastic quality. Once I raised an issue with customer care they were pretty speedy with their replies also. I would use again in the future, but would bare in mind the possibility of a custom charge and order with plenty of time.

As far as I'm concerned, it's not always easy to find the paints recommended in the model leaflets, as the names and sometimes the references are different between the site and the leaflets. Some standardization would be welcome, and would facilitate the work of "novices" like myself. Otherwise, the number of models is impressive, and delivery times are respected (with the occasional "miss"!).) I've discovered wooden models, which require less tooling than plastic or metal models, and produce beautiful objects. Only one problem = I order faster than I assemble my models, and I'm building up quite a stock i But it's so tempting ...

One of the items arrived crushed, it's for Christmas we haven't opened it but already it's not pretty to offer, might as well buy second hand if the new arrives in bad condition.
The delivery was not reported, and I discovered my parcel hidden in my shed by chance (which is perfect, but a simple sms to warn of the delivery and hiding place is essential). Unfortunately, I discovered it too late to offer it in time before December. Preparation and dispatch are rather long compared with local e-traders.

As it was my first order from you, I can only rate it as good. They also responded well to my inquiry when I was unsure about the product. The only thing that could have been a criminal offense was the way the delivery service dropped off the shipment.

I didn't give 5 stars because everything is perfect except for the paint pots. You have to remove the label you put on them to see the color code reference ( x or xf...) on the Tamiya pots.

Easy navigation and wide selection. Good communication. Delay in sending the order but I was warned. Quick response to my emails. On the other hand, delivery by mondial relais sucks. In a bad relay point and too complicated to move it from one relay point to another ... Otherwise I wouldn't have received my order placed on November 23rd for Christmas. In short, I had to go out of my way.

Good responsiveness for ordering and delivery. Small downside, the references are more expensive than the competition. Satisfied nonetheless.

I've been a customer for a few years now, and I've noticed that the delivery time is shorter than usual - great! On the other hand, the condition of the parcel, with the box all dented, gave me a few cold sweats when I picked it up at the post office. Happy holidays to the whole team!

Although it took a while to arrive, they finally brought the package. I think they would have to fix the Correos issue because whenever I buy something, they always send me a message because the customs costs have not been paid. In spite of that, in the end, it arrives.

Box was damaged WITHIN the packaging. Luckily nothing inside was broken (briefly checked).
Big box and the model is big so nicely done on having that available. Just keep in mind the box packing when ordering.

The product met my expectations, but the delivery time information was a bit erratic. But overall, I would recommend it.
