Bad experience with pre-orders, this is the first time I have had such a bad experience. No communication about the status of orders and the accumulating delays, on models that are already released and available elsewhere. I regret my trust.

Hello, We are sincerely sorry to hear that your experience with our pre-orders did not meet your expectations, and we fully understand your frustration. We acknowledge that a lack of communication may have heightened your disappointment, particularly regarding the delays. Some models that have already been released by other distributors may indeed arrive later with us, depending on our suppliers and their logistics chain. We regret that this has affected your trust and take your feedback very seriously. Improvements are underway to enhance our customer follow-up and transparency regarding the status of orders. We remain at your disposal to discuss your order, if you wish. Best regards, 1001hobbies

Hello, I placed my order on December 29 and after many twists and turns, I received the balance of my order in early April, with a refund for a box that was not delivered (well monitored, it's a shame). I was expecting a commercial gesture since I usually order every month, but nothing. I don't know if I will reorder.

Hello Sir,

We regret this incident and apologize for this processing delay.

The product you ordered unfortunately fell victim to its success. When we ordered from our supplier Coby, the product was indicated as available. However, it turned out that it was actually being restocked.

Our supplier did not inform us of this situation, which resulted in a delivery delay beyond our control.

We sincerely regret this lack of communication and fully understand that this delay is unacceptable.

We kindly ask you to excuse us for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.

Hello Sir,

When you placed your order, you selected three products, two of which were available in immediate stock. Following your contact with our customer service, we split your order to ship you the products that were already available without delay.

Regarding the third item, it unfortunately fell victim to its success. When we ordered from our supplier Coby, it was indicated as available, but it later turned out that it was being restocked.

Our supplier did not inform us of this unavailability, which resulted in a delivery delay completely beyond our control.

We regret this situation and fully understand that this delay is difficult to accept. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused and remain at your disposal for any further information.

I sent 1 in already...the generator model is crap. To remove the pieces from the molds was difficult & tedious & a few pieces broke because of the difficulty to remove them.

Hello,

We regret this review and apologize for the delay. We are doing everything we can to improve our processing and delivery times.

In your orders, two products were subject to a long delay, requiring a special order from our supplier in England. The delay for these products is about 4 weeks. However, it is possible that customs may have held up the order, which is the case for the Seminole Warriors 1:72 figurine. This is why this box arrived later than expected.

Please feel free to contact our customer service for any questions or assistance requests.
