Around 80 euros for a wooden bridge that the letter carrier has to abuse to get it into your letterbox... Perhaps in future it would be wise for the site to mention the fragility of the parcel and above all for it to be rigid enough to prevent folding. Thank you and see you soon.

I was happy to find a product that was almost impossible to find on your site. Unfortunately, the description turned out to be wrong and in the end it's the same as everywhere else, which is a pity. Delivery times are relatively long compared with the competition, but the site remains relatively secure.

Please reconsider: a satisfaction questionnaire to fill in when the receipt of an order is delayed is of the worst effect... By the way, where is my order (cashed as it should be)?

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.

I ordered varnish and decals and everything arrived in an envelope with bubbles. ...the decals have suffered (folding, damage to a decal ...) the least I could do would be to slide the decal board between 2 sheets of cardboard, which would avoid, in my opinion, the deterioration of these somewhat sensitive boards.

First buying experience on 1001 models unfortunately not entirely satisfactory. The order placed (and paid for) on Sunday, July 6 arrived on Friday, July 25 despite the fact that all of the products ordered were marked as available except for 1 listed as in stock and shippable in 4-6 days. After about 10 days of waiting an email informed me that such product first delayed and then unavailable would be cancelled from the order its cost was returned to me in the form of a voucher for a later purchase (would have been more welcome the money back but so be it). Finally on the 17th the package is shipped the tracking number I receive only on the 24th (it tells me that on the 23rd the package left France was taken over by a courier) but by now it is of no use since it arrived on the 25th and mysteriously also contains the product unavailable! Just as well even though by now I had ordered it and received it (in three days!) from England. Positive sides: - lots of products that can be ordered - with sales you can find nice models at good prices. Negative sides: - standard shipping and delivery times too long even unnerving in case of temporary hiccups - though not the company's fault - in the delivery of the products - automatic communications via site account or via email unclear and often late - packaging definitely improvable considering the fragile and expensive nature of the goods handled.

This is the first order I've placed with you because I usually buy from oupsmodels. The difference with them is that in 2 days I have the equipment and the prices overall are 2x cheaper, so it's up to you to decide, Cordia.

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.

It doesn't seem normal to me that they take a week to prepare an order for an object and then add to that the week it takes to ship it. And I needed it for a gift.

Two weeks to receive the order. Little or no information during the process. There is no way of knowing if the product is in stock or not, so you buy blindly, since at no time do they inform you, I guess so that you don't refuse. There is also no tracking of the shipment by the courier company. In short, there is room for improvement at all levels.

There's no doubt that n1001 Maquettes offers a wide choice of products, from hardware models to various products (paints, glues, etc.). However, order processing could be improved. For example, for a payment accepted on 2305, I received a message the same day announcing that the order had been processed, then three messages on the 29th and 31st announcing that the order had still not been dispatched due to a product backlog. It was only on 0206 that I received the dispatch message. At no time was I told what the missing product was, what the expected delay was, nor was it suggested that I give it up or replace it with something else. In short, a beautiful catal

Great Stuff but SLOW Shipping Ordered decal sheets which I could not find anywhere else and which were indicated as in-stock. Confirmation e-mail stated 6-8 days delivery time. 14 days after placing order I received an e-mail ""updating"" me and stating items were shipped from Europe and would need to stop at US facility before finally being sent to me. Items arrived well protected in rigid cardboard flat mailer and in great condition after about 4 weeks. Keep in mind that at the same time I placed this order I placed some other orders with vendors in Australia and Singapore. I received those orders in about 1 week via direct international mail as flat packages (just like these decals). Denver (where I live) to Paris distance is 4900 miles. Denver to Sydney is 8300 miles and Denver to Singapore is 9000 miles - get the picture? I don't know why it should take so long to get a flat mailer from 1001, but they really need to work on improving their shipping times. That being said, if I needed something that they had I would be confident ordering from them in the future, but would be aware of the long wait time.

Veeeeery slowwwww...... Very impressive site with lots of goodies for the modeling enthusiast but... I registered and placed my first order for 4 decal sheets on April 1st. The prices all over the site were within the market range. But the postage charged (8.90€) was excessive even for registered mail for a 20 gr. envelope. All the items were marked as available and 3 of them had 5-6 day shipping time indicated. I paid thru Paypal on the same day. The next day I received an e-mail message that the order has been processed and that I will receive my order in 6-8 days. After ten (10) days (on April 11th) I received another e-mail saying that my order has been shipped!!! Because the shipment had not arrived on April 29th, I sent an e-mail asking for details and where do they ship from. I got an answer the next day saying that they ship from France and that surface mail (!!!) might take longer to arrive. On May 12th I wrote again to their customer service complaining about the long delay in their delivery and asking for an answer. I also opened a dispute in Paypal's resolution center. I got a message the next day saying that the envelope must be lost and that one of the decal sheets was no longer available. I was given the option to buy something else from the site and so I did. The new order was processed the next day (May 14th), I received an e-mail on May 19th that it will be shipped soon (!!!) and finally an e-mail on May 21st that it was shipped (more than a week after the new order was placed). The envelope arrived on May 27th which is within the normal range for an intra EU 1st class mail. Mind you the postage affixed was 1,35 € !!!! I have to point out that I trade over the net constantly and never had a problem with lost mail in over 600 transactions during the last 8 years or so. There is something definitely wrong with their very slow shipping and equally slow customer response service. Possibly the items sent from the EU are not in stock there and have to be shipped from elsewhere thus the one week between ordering and shipping. I cannot detect any malicious intent but I am skeptic about any future purchases from them......
