Shopped with Hobby Search Shopped with Hobby Search and was very happy with the service and quick delivery to the UK using DHL, the prices are also competitive to other retailers selling the same/similar items. Will become a returning customer.

Great items and excellent service from 1999 Hobby Search. I have bought model railway items from 1999 Hobby Search, over several years and have always found them extremely helpful and a pleasure to do business. My latest items, a kit of a Japanese farm house and water mill and a kit of a modern factory by TGW and a Kato loco spare part, were delivered very quickly. They were well packed and and excellent items. The kits have not been made yet, but they look well made and do not have any flash or residue on them. The price charged, including postage was very fair, even after import duties were paid. An excellent company to deal with and their point system is a great bonus. Thank you 1999 Hobby Search.

Bad experience with Hobby Search co. Ltd. I ordered a model from Hobbysearch japan for €107,00 and had to pay €541,00. Hobbysearch sends the invoice if the package is already at the door: no more cancellation possible. Money was transferred by PayPal immediately. No protection against rogue companies as PayPal claims! We do not recommend that you ever buy anything from Hobbysearch. PayPal warranty is worth nothing.

Fast Service to the UK This is my first order with 1999.jp and I have no complaints. The website is excellent with plenty of choice for my needs. Ordering was simple, paid by PayPal and had regular updates until my item arrived on my doorstep, the day after landing in the UK. Took less than two weeks using Japan Post and I had no customs to pay. My item was well boxed and is exactly what I wanted.

Terrible service Terrible service Terrible service. I didn’t receive the package, waited over 6 months. I asked for help several times with tracking and they didn't help me. Because of waiting time the bank couldn't help me either (after 2 months it's impossible to get money back from credit card) The money was not returned to me. I have order Tamiya Phantom over six months ago and lost over 100 USD. Worst model store experience ever !!
