The online store Chibi Akihabara is praised for its efficient and prompt shipping, with many customers highlighting that their orders arrived quickly and in good condition. The careful packaging of items is consistently mentioned, ensuring that products are well-protected during transit. Customers express satisfaction with the quality of the figurines received, often describing them as beautiful and a perfect addition to their collections. Additionally, the customer service is noted for being responsive and helpful, effectively addressing any questions or issues that arise.
Extremely disappointed and let down by the whole service. A cascade of delivery delays due to the manufacturer but neither shared nor relayed by Chibi. The only response is to ask for a refund if you're not happy, but we customers have signed up for a pre-order with you Chibi, paying you in advance (and therefore not collecting the item from another supplier), while you, the seller, are not making the slightest commercial effort. As a consultant and entrepreneur, I know where this denial and lack of value chain management always ends up.

Response from CHIBI AKIHABARA
Hello, We apologize for this inconvenience. Unfortunately, we are dependent on our suppliers. We can neither manufacture the figurine ourselves, nor go and get it directly from Japan. We deal with French suppliers, who don't have the same release dates as the Japanese, and who have all the logistics involved in getting the products to France. With the health crisis and the price of containers, suppliers have fallen behind, and sometimes even the production lines themselves have fallen behind. We offer our customers several solutions, including reimbursement. We try to communicate as much information as possible, including the change of date on the counter, but it often happens, much to our regret, that the supplier himself is unable to provide a date. And it's not our policy to lie about dates to keep customers waiting, we prefer to be honest. Sincerely

I didn't receive my parcel because the chosen post office closed for vacations (quite unbelievable) and instead of contacting me to find out where I wanted it delivered, the post office supposedly had it delivered to the nearest post office. I received a message that it had been withdrawn, I don't understand what happened. I'm very disappointed because I'm going to give it to my godson for Christmas and in the end I got nothing.

HelloWe apologize for the inconvenience. As you yourself indicated in the message, the chosen relay was closed for vacations. This was not our fault, nor was the lack of communication from the Post Office. I understand that you're penalizing us, but the bill is harsh, for a parcel dispatched on time on our part. After verification, your parcel has been delivered and is therefore in your hands.

HelloThe products you ordered were pre-orders with different release dates. As perfectly indicated on our website:" What you need to know before pre-orderingIf your basket contains both in-stock and pre-ordered items, your order will only be dispatched when your pre-ordered items are available. For this reason, we invite you to make your purchases in 2 separate baskets, which will allow you to receive your in-stock items first without waiting for the pre-order release date. "Products are dispatched when they are ALL in stock and have arrived at our premises. Should the wait become too long, we have a procedure for shipping products in stock. I understand your dissatisfaction, but we are only a reseller, not a manufacturer of figurines. That's why there are delays of varying lengths, and why, unfortunately, some products may be delayed due to the health crisis. Our teams do their utmost to dispatch orders when all products are available. Should you require a faster delivery time, it is preferable to order figurines already in stock. Sincerely
A

I was disappointed to receive the figurine to assemble ... I thought it would have been in one piece like others I've bought elsewhere.
Translated reviews
Response from CHIBI AKIHABARA
HelloWe are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with your product. You have ordered a Midoriya Izuku The Amazing Heroes Vol.13 figure. The only parts that usually need to be assembled with Banpresto figures are the head and the rod to hold it in place. Most of this manufacturer's figures are like this. They require a minimum of assembly, which doesn't require much handling. You also have the option of returning the product to us (at your expense) in its original cardboard box for a refund if you are dissatisfied. To give us two stars for a product that requires little assembly proves your extreme disappointment. We hope, however, that the service provided for your order has met your expectations. Best regards

I ordered a chibibox with 3 products: a figurine, a pin and a drink. According to the website, on the page where the different sizes of chibiboxes are presented, a red and white box with "my chibibox" written on it can be seen behind the products that make it up. I therefore legitimately thought that the 3 products would be packaged in this "my chibibox" box as suggested, itself then put in a shipping carton.I contacted customer service who informed me:1. that the drink was out of stock and had been exchanged (without my being informed and without my being able to choose the replacement product)2. that there was no error in the packaging and that no other packaging was planned (in other words, not very presentable as a gift!)For the price paid, I found the service very inadequate and the response from customer service very laconic: no apology for the inconvenience, no proposal for an exchange...

Response from CHIBI AKIHABARA
Hello, We're very sorry to hear that you've received your broken figurine. However, this is not an excuse for a fault, it is the procedure requested by the supplier in order to send you another one. There's no dishonesty in this procedure; we've exchanged figurines every time using this procedure. We're not in the business of ripping off customers - quite the contrary. We exchange products, we just ask that you respect the procedure. Don't hesitate to contact us via customer service or social networks if you have any questions, we'll be happy to help. Best regards.

Hello, We are sorry that the product does not meet your expectations. You ordered the standard product as indicated in the figurine title (which you can see in your order history). You can see for yourself that the Deluxe figurine is much more expensive and clearly indicated in the product title, and that it contains interchangeable parts unlike the standard one. Please note that you have the option of returning the product to us (at your expense, in its original box). Upon receipt of the product and verification of the merchandise, we will be able to proceed with the refund. Wishing you a good dayGreetings

Hello,We apologize for the long delay of your order. When we put a counter on the product sheet, we already add days to the supplier's date. With the health crisis that has taken place and that we are still suffering from, suppliers and even manufacturing plants have fallen behind, especially at the moment with the shortage of certain materials. Despite our many daily reminders, suppliers are unable to give us new dates, or else they provide us with vague estimates. You should also know that we are not responsible for supplier delays. We sell the products. We do not manufacture them. Despite our best efforts to keep our product sheets as up to date as possible, there are times when we are unable to give a precise date. What is certain is that the figurines have been ordered from our supplier and that, on receipt of the goods, the orders will be dispatched. Once again, we apologize for this delay on the part of our suppliers.

Get away from this site! They are scammers and incompetent! My boyfriend received a Tsume figure of Toshiro (~600) with one of the parts broken. He contacted sav on twitter and the guy laughed at him and blocked him because my boyfriend was angry which is normal given the price of the figurine! Then Chibi was supposed to send him back the broken part, in the end, he's been waiting for 2 months with his figurine on the ground, impossible to assemble as the broken part is the figurine's pillar. Don't buy there
Translated reviews
Response from CHIBI AKIHABARA
Hello, It took us several months to send you the part because Tsume refused to provide after-sales service. This supplier requires retailers to open the boxes of the figurines when they receive the products in order to check them. Of course, this is not possible. So every time, you have to argue and fight to win your case. Your spare part has been sent, and since we haven't heard from you, we assume that everything is back to normal. Yours faithfully

I received my itachi figurine in perfect condition (cardboard box + original box), but when I was about to give it to my brother for his birthday, we realized that itachi's head was missing part of its hair (it was already broken in the plastic bag, which is nitrogenized, so it's slightly bulging to allow for possible shocks).I contact the store, which doesn't take my word for it and asks me for photos (I realize it's their right to do this). I send them all (the cardboard box, the original box of the figurine from all angles, and the figurine with the broken part) and they tell me to cut off the figurine's head or an arm and send him a photo so that he can have proof and send me one back. Then they keep telling me I've got to do it, otherwise I can't send it back, even though I've paid 50 euros for an original defect and, above all, it could have been avoided because all the other stores I've been able to visit online or in person check their products before sending them (without destroying or damaging the original box for collectors). So I end up with a broken figurine that has no value whatsoever, and what's more, I can neither be reimbursed nor receive a new one, as I'm asked to destroy an item that's already been destroyed before it's dispatched. Really, go the other way. I've ordered over 500 figurines and NEVER had a problem like this. I've always had a direct exchange in the event of a product defect.

A telephone number is available, and requests for information about certain products are completely ignored after several requests. Clearly, only the financial aspect counts for the people in charge of this structure. Too bad when passion disappears to the detriment of finance, and a form of hypocrisy, because the site wants to "sell", availability, listening, and customer service that is not at all the case. JDworld, for example, has managed to retain its humanity and helpfulness... little people who know how to do their utmost with little means, and that deserves respect.
