Generally ok but received an unexpected delivery cost of £68:51 which was not mentioned when i ordered. Also, USP demanded payment before handing over parcel, but they wouldn't accept a cheque (still legal tender) i don't do online banking and so had to find cash. pretty annoyed by both extra cost and UPS.

Finally delivered yesterday (long delay due to UPS and the broker in the UK messing about AFTER it had cleared customs. 1001 hobbies had already CHARGED me to use PayPal! Never had that before, from any supplier anywhere!! Then, on top of the VAT charged in France, I also got a massive import charge. So my order ended up being over £500+. I have to assume/hope the item will be 100% OK…not opened as it is a Christmas present. I don’t know if I could have ordered this anywhere else…but if I could have I would. Will never buy again from a seller that uses UPS, they let you down BADLY, so the whole experience was a bad one. Have never had so much messing about, and I ship from all over the world.

Answer from 1001hobbies
Dear customer,
First of all, we sincerely apologize for this inconvenience.
Indeed, our company 1001hobbies is located in France (Paris). Therefore, the VAT charged in France may be significant in your country of origin.
This also explains the delivery time to your address.
However, the customer service will come back to you to solve the problem due to the import charge
Kind regards,
Customer Service.

Fine, but I made two orders a day apart, and the sum of the two gave me free delivery.... One was sent to my address and the other by mondial relais , with both delivery charges.... Go figure. Too bad.

Le prime volte è stato tutto fantastico ma da quando ho richiesto il codice mt35021 che mi avevate detto di spedirmi successivamente perché avevate dimenticato di inserire nell'ordine fatto le cose non vanno più bene. Ho scritto molte volte ma ancora non ho ricevuto risposta alla mia domanda perché il prodotto da me richiesto è presente e disponibile ma io non riesco ancora ad averlo. Mi avete dato solo un buono corrispondente all'importo da me pagato per l'oggetto ma io vorrei quello che ho ordinato.

Used your website I clearly selected the item I desired but unfortunately there is a mistake with the website so very disappointed this has happened. I also think the website should have a language selection I like France but too much French language on website. More language friendly please!!!

Shipping and timing are good, but i find some products completely overpriced!....having chosen an item at the time on the market "out-of stock" I paid, in my opinion, dearly for the exclusivity.....Naturally all with my own knowledge.

I bought a model for more than 60€ and it leaves something to be desired for the price it cost. I paid 6€ for shipping and about 3€ for it to come gift wrapped, and it took longer than estimated (when at the time of purchase no one warned about it or put it on the website, then already put it in the item description), and the wrapping was a crappy wrapping paper with nothing else.

I had to wait far too long (almost a month) for my order to be dispatched, even though the product was supposed to be in stock (marked as available)... What's more, the prices weren't very competitive. The main advantage of this site is the wide range of products on offer, which you can't necessarily find elsewhere.

I ordered two pots of model paint, one of which was fine, but the other contained paint with a strange texture that was impossible to mix, resulting in a lumpy, non-flowing mass that could not be used.

Unfortunately very late delivery , after calling customer service they tell me they had not been restocked and could not ship it to me on time . Ok however at least they could have warned with an email about the delay . When they sent it to me it arrived quickly , I hope it does not happen to others .

Very mixed in this review. Ordered 4 items: Positive: Eduard prices great others fair Negative: part number error/description for ICM 72072. It’s I-16 type 18 and not 28 which is ICM 72073. Sorry didn’t receive described item. All 4 packages damaged with Italeri models box actually torn. Open and models themselves are okay. Received message after complaint and basically can return at shipping rate greater than cost of model.

I was a little disappointed with the quality of the models. The parts are smaller than I expected and some don't fit together well. 2 out of 3 paints were dry. I had to add a little water to try and make them usable, but it wasn't very good. I think it's expensive for what it is.

This latest order was a bit of a hiccup, as the product wasn't really in stock and the lead time was longer than normal, but this was announced at the outset and taken into account. The problem was that, apart from the automatic alerts activated when lead times were exceeded, it was difficult to get concrete feedback on the status of the order. The lead time "2 to 4 weeks" became 6 weeks: order on August 5, received on Sept. 18. But it's fine, just an impatient guy to deal with at home. I know supplies are complicated these days. Thanks to 1001 Hobbies for distributing COBI.
