It's a shame the paints aren't included.

Hello, I'm happy with the service except for one thing... I'd like to get in touch with you to send the remote control car back to you because the reverse gear works very badly, roughly one out of 10 times, but it's impossible because I can't find a way to contact you on your website. What should I do?

Order incomplete, boat not possible to assemble waiting for supplier no news since 25/12; customer service replied but for the moment I have no solution. So I can't give you the highest mark, but the order went well, the package was well packed and received in ten days.

At this high price I was expecting a thick plastic cockpit like the original. What I got instead was a very light, poor-quality plastic cockpit. And when I see that I have to pay for a possible return if I'm not satisfied, this would be almost the price of a new model. I'm very disappointed.

Delivery time too long. A date should be given if shipment cannot be made immediately.

Fast delivery, shame to have to pay to use PayPal, and to advertise free delivery only to end up charging for it, it's a bit average.

Change delivery drivers....great problems with the incompetent private parcel company.

I paid 2 x the order. I explained my problem. All I received in return was an automatic official letter... I still don't know why I received an email with a request to pay. for another order no. and so I paid 2 x....

I purchased a gift at 1001hobbies.com. The gift was mailed to my address instead of the shipping address. I paid extra for gift wrap, and the wrapping looked like it was just an old newspaper, loosely taped together, very sloppy.

It took 10 days after the order to tell me that an item was missing. I asked for a refund and then an email informed me that I would receive the item (which was almost twice as expensive as the competition) and then with 22 or 23 emails received it was too much Result: I received everything but it was very very complicated.

Order took a very, very long time to be sent. Impossible to reach by phone and ship reply by email. It was for a Christmas present and received in January...Not very satisfied. Otherwise, lots of choice on the site and the items are very pretty.

The company service worked well, delivery was complete but unfortunately delayed several times. It is unacceptable that the parcel was simply left on the street in front of the house without any notice, making it accessible to third parties. Several deliveries have already been lost in this way. The delivery service is beneath contempt and therefore in the bottom drawer. Something like this makes me think very critically about my customer relationship in future and possibly not order anything else.

As I didn't receive the order before Christmas, I can't give it a good mark.

Order processing time to be improved.

Order was delivered more than a week late. Delivery times are not correct at all.

Original order went missing, but they did re-send the order, but too late for Christmas. Inadequate communication from the start from 1001hobbies, which left us anxious for the 5 weeks between our order and eventual delivery, but we did receive our parcel in the end, containing a model which promises to be very exciting. I still don't know the reason for the delay, as my several messages to them have gone without reply. I guess they were busier than anticipated this year.

Order took far too long to arrive! Otherwise good online site!

I ordered a submarine model for my son for Christmas ordering the recommend paints that were listed against the model. When my son opened the box to start to build the model on Boxing Day, we discovered that only one of the paints recommended was correct and I’d wasted £22 on needless paints! I have written to complain and heard nothing back. Won’t be using again.

Everything was fine. Except for the shipping that took a while. And I bought twice by mistake and one shipment did not give me the option to return and they sent me twice the same order.

I’m only giving 2 stars because the items were fine when they eventually arrived. Listed as 3-5 days delivery, they arrived after 13 days. They don’t answer the phone or answer emails. I paid extra to use PayPal, and extra for gift wrapping. The gift wrapping was appalling. Items arrived too late to give as an Xmas present. I won’t be using this company again.

I am satisfied with 2 products purchased. Now, I regret that they were sent very late. When I placed my order (November 27), 1 of the 2 products was in stock and the other should have arrived within 2 to 4 weeks, i.e., before Christmas (they were Christmas gifts, so I was confident I'd be able to get them in time....). Unfortunately, after some time, I received a message from the site telling me that, due to stock shortages, my 2 items were going to be shipped to me after Christmas for receipt on the 30th. The baubles!!! No more Christmas presents!!! Fortunately, it was for people who no longer believe in Santa Claus and who had to make do with gift certificates while waiting for my parcel to arrive... I think a commercial gesture would have been welcome to compensate for this delay... Too bad they didn't offer me anything (even though my order was around 100 euros, which is no small amount...). So I'm a bit disappointed...

I placed my order on 4/12 to receive it in time for Christmas, my order was late... It still arrived before Christmas (on 24/12) but unfortunately I wasn't there to collect my parcel... On the other hand, I had almost 0 information on the whereabouts of our parcel, which I find very unfortunate and annoying.

The product was fine, but did not arrive in time for Christmas Day. I was warned that there was going to be a delay and asked for confirmation if it was not going to arrive in time to buy something else..... There was no reply and it did not arrive in time.

Package ordered December 16 with expected delivery between December 20 and 23 arrived December 28. It was a gift for Christmas... So on December 24 I had to rush to find an alternative.... Very annoying...

The search engine is approximate given the number of products you have a lack of description on the product sheets

They should communicate the non-existence of the requested material, to give the option to cancel it and expedite the shipment of the material that they do have in stock.

Finding products from your suppliers is too slow, as is shipping. The products for sale are great and from many brands.

Happy with the product but disappointed with the packaging of the model and the utensils, which were delivered loose in the box...

Very mixed opinion, complicated order, order of 3 puzzles. After 3 days it was still being prepared, even though the site talks about fast delivery. When I sent a message, I was told that 1 puzzle was missing, and I was automatically given a credit note which did not interest me. I ask to cancel the order, and they accept my request and promise me a refund. 2 days later, this incomplete order is shipped. I'm offered to send the order back.... In short, after I don't know how many exchanges by e-mail because it's impossible to get them on the phone, I pick up the puzzles at a relay point and they promise to reimburse me for the missing puzzle which is still a credit .... I accept but I'm waiting..... Too bad they don't update the unavailabilities. The puzzles are great, well protected. But the after-sales service is pretty disastrous in the event of a problem that could have been resolved very quickly...

Very slow shipping, over a month, despite the item being in stock at purchase. Plastic item as described.

The two stars are because we did get our order eventually. But be warned that the products are shipped from another country and this company does not answer their phone or emails. You just have to have faith it will get there. I paid 45 dollars for expedited shipping however it still took 2 weeks for it to leave their warehouse in France. I ordered something else regular shipping and it took the same amount of time.

Everything is made of plastic, even the sails, it all comes in bulk

Unfortunately, I relied on "first impressions" here. My sister arrived with an idea for a Christmas present at almost the last minute. The item she bought had a delivery time of 2 to 4 days. I therefore expected the gift to arrive by post on 22.12 at the latest. In fact, it took a whole 9 working days before it arrived. If you look at the information on this page, it also states a time of between 7 and 9 working days. Exactly 1 working day elapsed between the parcel being handed in and me receiving it. This means that the shipping process, originally 2 to 4 days, actually took 7 working days. That may not be a problem in itself, but if you visit your family on the 24th and are therefore not at home to accept and hand over the parcel, it's really stupid. Why isn't the 7 to 9 day delivery time mentioned when ordering, then I would have decided not to order here, but that's probably the problem. I would have spent my money with someone else. It's a shame that there is this lack of transparency.

I ordered a fishing boat and found an item with 2 boats in the same parcel. The length, and I think the only one in the description, was that of the 14cm parcel and not that of the boats because they are only about 5cm long.

It is not possible to ship A4 size decal sheets without hard protection. Mine arrived 50 percent damaged.

Not enough color details not enough gloss and not enough choice

Very disappointed with this site, order placed on December 9, delivery scheduled for December 18, then scheduled for early January. After several complaints finally delivered on the 24th. With other sites, delivery takes place in 2 or 3 days for the same product. Unreliable site

I found the shipping package in the stairwell without having signed anything for acceptance. It does not seem logical to me since the condominiums did not declare anything to me and for that since my name was listed it was considered that the delivery was delivered to myself and not to other people...now I am waiting for the refund of the credit note amounting to € 28.89 since more than 14 working days have passed .thank you!!! Thank you!!!

I would have liked to have been notified earlier of stock shortages and not have to wait 1 month for delivery.

Bonjour le service commande et expédition fonctionne relativement bien mais le service COMUNICATION est a revoir totalement je passe commande le 18/12 pour le 24/12 le 23/12 je reçois un message m'expliquant que ma commande est seulement "en préparation" du coup je vous répond par un message peu agressif car déçu et le demain matin m'on informe que mon colis m'attend dans mon point relais! doc in 12 hours you finalized my order, you deposited it with the carrier mondial relay and this one delivered it to my village you are magicians of internet sales!!! finally the main thing is that my grandson got his gift on time thank you
