    No problems. Kit came from Europe and took about an extra week for delivery. Not 1001 fault, probably bexit !

    Package came from France to the United Kingdom in only one layer of bubble wrap as packaging, no box at all! As a result my item, which was a collectors piece, was damaged very badly. To add insult to injury they also taped my other item to the collectable items box, damaging it further. I contacted them but have had no reply so far, I wouldn't recommend 1001 Hobbies.

    The order arrived within the specified time frame and I was kept fully informed until delivery. I can’t comment on the actual model as I haven’t started it yet.

    Pity I didn't search the web before I bought it as I could have got it cheaper. But now for each model I think I would like to build I have googled them and if the model is not considerably cheaper for similar priced ones you can get them without paying postage. Sorry I will not use you again unless I am desperate and watch out for 2 month delivery

    My order was shipped very quickly, but the delivery took longer than expected because despite ordering from a UK website address, the company appears to be from and my item shipped from France. UK buyers...Buy with confidence, however expect approximately two weeks for delivery. Would I buy from this company again? Yes!

    Unfortunately I would not use this company again. Paid for Express delivery and said it would arrive 2-3 business days. Kept looking for tracking details and found nothing. After a week tried calling the number in the UK as it was a .co.uk website. This was then I got suspicious. Number kept dropping out. BEWARE. This is not a UK based Company like is says it is. Emailed and got a reply saying item was in received in the UK on 11th July and I would get it within 2 days. Well two days had already passed and nothing.Still no tracking details Called my credit card company to report a scam. They said to wait another week before looking into it. Then on 20th July nearly 2 weeks after placing order I find I have tracking details. These showed the item arrived in France on 16th so a complete lie by the company telling me it was in the UK on the 11th. It then arrived in UK at Heathrow on the 19th in the evening. I actually did receive this , thankfully but not until the 22nd July having paid for 2-3 express delivery on 8th.
