    I was told my item wasn’t available two day post purchase. They offered me a similar item and told me I would not pay the balance. We thought it was a good gesture. However the item they sent was on sale for the same price. So we did think we where mislead. Then it took days to post abscess held up st customs because it didn’t have the proper paperwork. When it did arrive it had one wrap of bubble wrap ! Just one layer fir a 10kg item that had done electrical components. Poor show 1001 !

    Well what can I say? Instead of the kit I ordered, I received a set of paint masks as there was a confusion with the serial number. The order clearly had the name of the aircraft of the kit I ordered but that didn't seem to make any difference. I was told to keep the masks and that I would be refunded. It didn't happen until I reminded them weeks later.

    Fantastic service, delivery took just over a week but I was kept updated all the way. Tracking info sent so it was easy to keep an eye on it. This is my 3rd purchase and won’t be my last. Well unless my other half finds out what I have been buying 😝😝

    dishonest and unreliable company. website co.uk. Unfortunately, this is misinformation because the shipment is from France, the seller does not provide the actual cost of the purchase, I had to pay over £ 45 customs duty. they do not respond to sent emails.

    Ordering system was fine, easy enough to navigate. Didn't realise that some items were on back order so delivery took a while, but not outrageous. Was a little disappointed with all the non standard labeling in French covering the English directions and caution labeling, something which I think should be addressed at source, especially when targeting the UK market. Otherwise everything is good, items as described and correct, good value for money, no complaints really.

    I have to admit i was nervous ordering from France, expecting a hold up at customs. I need not worry, the parcel arrived on time, well wrapped and was an excellant price, cheaper than directly from China. Communication was excellant and regular and the website even had an expected arrival and delivery date. I am very pleased with this seller and would not hesitate to use them again

    I have purchased from 1001 hobbies previously and have found them to be excellent from start to finish. Well priced products, easy to navigate website and you kept informed with regards to how your purchase is progressing from payment right up until it arrives at your front door. The products are always well protected and arrive in great condition. I can't recommend 1001 highly enough.

    No communication during order process, nobody returning emails whilst trying to contact customer services. Be careful of measurements for things on the site aswel as I bought the wife a purse after reading the measurements and it ended up been a good 3cm bigger than stated.

Repeatedly contacted and made this known to 1001hobbies, but days later and still no answer from them to acknowledge let alone deal with problem.

    Placed an order for Xmas, with a published delivery time of 2 weeks. Should have been plenty of time. When there was no sign of it, I had to contact them to chase delivery. To be told there’s no way it would be delivered for Xmas! Therefore I had to cancel! COMMUNICATION IS PARAMOUNT.

    I purchased a tamiya carbon fibre chassis upgrade kit from 1001 hobbies. This excellent item arrived safely and well packaged, in perfect condition. The price was very good. I'm very exited to build this into my touring car. The delivery was a little bit slow (2 weeks) but I suspect this is due to brexit. Overall, very happy with service, and would recommend 1001 hobbies. Will use again.

    See my previous review regarding this company. Since I sent it I have at last received a refund. It's taken the best part of a month plus follow up calls. They receive a 2 star rating because at least I did get my money back.
