  Outstanding selection of models and decals for those models. I've been assembling aircraft models for over 15 years. Needed a hobby after I retired and I really appreciate an online store like 1001 Hobbies. They always have exactly what I've looked for. Shipping from overseas and the items still get here in the USA very quickly

  Very satisfied with the 1/48 FW1000 kit from Fist of War. Not many are offering this kit around the world and 1001 hobbies came through for me again! Just a great hobby store with many items not found easily. A++++ store!

  Everything was great. I would give an excellent review except that the tracking was not very informative. Since I travel frequently I rely on tracking to help my scheduling. Sometimes I have to let friends and family know that a package is arriving. I don't like leaving things out by my front door because of other people stealing objects from doorsteps.

  The web site said my order would ship within 14 days of my purchase. I received my order almost six weeks later and by the time I received it I’d already made other arrangements to substitute the cardboard models I ordered. I do not recommend 1001Hobbies to anyone.

  Terrible DONT BUY FROM HERE SEARCH ELSEWHERE! I got express shipping and received my order (a birthday present) a week after the party. When I contacted the company for help they basically told me they couldn’t do anything because I chose a shipping option without a tracking number. How exactly was I meant to know that express shipping didn’t come with a tracking number when it was not listed anywhere. I wasted 10$ just to receive my package on time. Very unprofessional as well , they gave me an update only when my payment went through and when my package was given to the courier but not after that I didn’t even get a notification my package was delivered (many days late) I definitely will not be putting my money into this company anymore and I suggest that you do not either. Search for the product you want elsewhere, you will most likely find it and the service will definitely be better than the one given here. I honestly should have been more careful but I only found the reviews after I had already ordered and all the negative ones had the same points. Definitely pay attention to the reviews and DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!!!

  Overall a good experience. My only concern was the manner in which the item was packaged. It was not in a box, it simply had bubble wrap around it. To travel the distance it did without proper packaging is risky. Also the item could be plainly seen through the bubble wrap. I don't want my purchases visible to those who have no need of seeing it.

  Not really a problem per se. It would be nice if they gave package tracking information or an easier way to check on your order. Placed an order and I don't think I even got a confirmation email. No way to track order or arrival date. My order just showed up one day. Before it arrived, I was half afraid that I had been scammed.

  Site easily navigated, materials sought were available, shipping speed was very good, especially as material was being shipped across the Atlantic. Packing was good, materials arrived in great shape. Prices were reasonable, material descriptions were generally good, although sometimes a little vague on applications.

  I didn’t like this. I was excited for a model for my husband for Christmas that I ordered many weeks before. It arrived AFTER Christmas despite paying the extra for delivery. When contacting customer service, I am told to wait for someone then no one comes. The day someone answered was to tell me it’s coming still. No resolution whatsoever and the model came in a destroyed box. Very unprofessional

  1001 Hobbies has been a good source for tough to find European kits from makers like Heller models. While quite expensive, the Euro/ Dollar exchange rate is what it is. The average rating is because of their awful packaging for overseas shipping. Wrapping a very expensive kit with nothing but bubble wrap and tape?! Seriously?! For what I paid in the price of the kits and shipping, I was awe struck by the way my $100+ Dollar order was shipped. I would gladly pay a little extra on top of the prices to have my orders properly boxed. It's more than a little disappointing to spend this kind of money to have the goods shipped so carelessly.

  the product was not great. the price was outlandish and the whole thing was a rip off. The cost to return it was $270.00 to get it there in time. We will not be doing this and so have just written the whole thing off to experience. We will not deal with 1001 hobbies ever again.

  Delivery time was acceptable considering where it was shipped from. However, communication was pathetic!! It took three emails to finally get a response from someone in France in broken English with a tracking number and how it was being delivered. Tracking was still a problem. I also tried calling the two U.S. phone numbers during normal business hours leaving a detailed message and return phone number. No one ever called. I would give customer service a rating of 0 out of 10. Otherwise, the item did arrive in good condition via USPS.

  I will focus on three aspects of this review on the shop: the website, the communication, and the shipping. The website is great! Everything is clear and easy to find and search. Nothing is glitchy and photos are very clear and descriptive of the item you're going to purchase. What you see in the picture is what you're going to get! The emails and communication is a bit awkward. The only original email I received when I made the purchase was the notification from PayPal, NOT Hobbies1001. So I had to screenshot the purchase confirmation on my browser and luckily I downloaded the invoice before closing the tab. I'm only bringing this up because most people immediately close the tab when they finish making a purchase and so if they don't download or screenshot the information, then they don't have any way of contacting with their invoice info. This was a pre-order item so when it was past two weeks after the estimated date I sent them an email. The response was within 24 hours and they assisted me easy and provided me with a shipping confirmation! So in some aspects they could improve with their communication and maybe create an automated system where we get the invoice in our email, especially considering they offer pre-order items. I waited 2 and a half months and I still had to send them an email about my item and I knew if I hadn't saved a screenshot of my invoice I wouldn't have that info when I inquired. But when I actually had to contact a person, it was quick and easy and they were very helpful! The shipping needs to be better. I was very disappointed. The package was literally just 2 layers of bubblewrap and packing tape with the label taped on top. The box of the figure was cracked open. Luckily the figure was fine but they really should have shipped with a cardboard box and packing paper. Collectors who display their figures in box would definitely be livid to see the box crushed in transit. Especially considering I paid $17 for shipping the least I expect is that it comes in a cardboard box.
