    I found 1001 Hobbies by accident, and found the company offered good quality Scale Models at Great Prices, if that is not enough, they offer a very quick delivery service, my Scale Model arrived when I was told it would arrive, all this, makes it easy to recommend 1001 Hobbies

    There was some confusion regarding my order of over 10 figures, and the order ended up being separated into several, but the staff were polite and patient throughout our correspondence. The issues were solved and the figures have all now arrived well packaged, and look great on display. I’ll definitely be using 1001 for my figures going forward.

    So far I have received 3 out of 5 items that were ordered a voucher and credit note. I have sent an email however no response yet. Collector's items has arrived in less than mint packaging so generally unhappy and unimpressed. How can a pre order item be awaiting a restock? Don't write cheques you can't cash!

    WARNING; This company is NOT in the UK. They are in FRANCE. They also work with suppliers so they don’t have stock on site, you have to wait 2-3 weeks for it to be delivered to them, and then they send it to you. I also got collared for a £90 customs charge. The site is NOT clear at all. Everything is .co.uk or a uk based phone number. That said, the prices are fabulous, any communication on my part was responded to promptly (even on the phone) and the lady I spoke to (I assume it is the same person) was lovely every time even though I likely drove her mad with my worries. Packages arrived VERY quickly once dispatched (one was delayed, annd even that was sent sooner than the ETA they gave me) and they were all packed nicely. I would definitely use again now I know what to expect. Fully recommend.

    Delivery of item from order date took 20 days - and this is not clear when ordering. However - the 1001 Hobbies customer service team did answer on email all my questions regarding delivery. UPS did deliver on agreed date and 1001Hobies do keep feeding you delivery information, (as do UPS). The item was safely delivered and overall I'm happy with 1001Hobbies.

    Order took ages to come. Informed one item not in stock. Email said order cancelled. Then order delivered with both items in it. Looks like no one knows what’s happening. Also an insult that I had to pay for postage and packaging. Order said delivery in 7 to 9 days that was a joke try 3 weeks. Very unlightly to order again.

    I bought the acrylic paints to paint my Heller model of a 1/24 scale Renault gtl. As of the present time I have not yet assembled the model.

    Review of , following an experience of by

    Ordered paint specifically as the web site (and my order details) stated it was in stock. Two weeks after order I enquired about the delay, an update was told 1001Hobbies was still getting some paint from their supplier (I.e. not “in stock”). Three weeks after order I requested a refund as there was no progress, but was told that a refund was not possible as my order was now being compiled. Order was finally delivered more than 4 weeks after the order was made (and after I had given up waiting and purchased the paint from elsewhere.). I was not impressed!

    The web address is misleading, it seems as if they are a UK company with a .UK address. However they ship from France which, other than the time factor was not an issue due to the low value of my purchase. Had I bought an expensive item, I would have found myself liable to import duty and Vat, adding considerably to the cost I think their website should be clearer regarding the country of shipping.

    Received the box I ordered with all the primers in them broken, the package was contaminated and it was stinking so much of chemicals that Royal Mail had to wrap it in a bag. Now I'm asking them fir a refund they want me to return it to them first!!! Seriously ehich carrier would ship a box contaminated with hazardous chemicals back to France? Do not buy from this company at all! Save your money and a headache dealing with the customer service.

    The model graff Zeppelin is rediculously expensive at over £60.00. It is also very badly finished- sprue everywhere and the parts are poorly finished. I would have returned this if the supplier was in the U.K. extremely disappointing

    At the time of writing this review I have had to wait 6 weeks for one item, the other is yet to be delivered. There was no contact from them, I had to chase several times to find out what was going on. Very poor customer service and really bad business practice. Would not recommend them to anyone.

    bought decals as they were advertised to include Omani airforce, received package with decals for KSA and others, no Omani insignia. Considering the cost and time waited this is very poor and does not match the advertised goods. Also drives from France. Rubbish.

    As the site is in pounds sterling I thought it was an English company. They are in France. You might have to wait a few days but you won't be disappointed. I ordered the mini epic sauron.

    I was not impressed with their customer services. Rather than trying to help me, they were quite rude. And instead of cancelling my order, as per my request, when i realised the products wouldn't arrive in time, they still sent them - charging me £10 for delivery for items that were of no use. I will not be ordering from them again.
