“I’ve used this shop for the last few years and have always been overwhelmed by the first class level of service and product knowledge. Orders usually arrive by the stated time and on the occasions when I’ve ordered an out of stock item the delivery is still quicker than expected. 5 out of 5 boys, keep it up. 😄”

“Brought a helicopter for £280 and opened box two weeks later to find missing control, battery and charger. Went to store to explain and was accused of selling the items on EBay, why anybody would say that is beyond me as surely you would say the helicopter was missing not the cheapest thing in the box. I have spent thousands in this store and the manager said this does not matter which surprises me as I always thought that customer loyalty was the life blood of any business. I was also told that the 30 day policy of returns only applied to internet sales, what a lie! I’ve never been so disappointed with a company or their attitude to customers I just hope people that spend a lot of money with them realise that they don’t give a dam about their customers or value the business that they are given.”

“Unfortunately, we have to agree with other recent reviews which have highlighted poor customer service. We have bought many parts successfully from this company for a couple of years, and they have usually been of great quality. However an electric motor failed within an hour of installation, and when returned for review and replacement, not only were we refused a refund or replacement for a part not fit for purpose, but were also questioned as to whether we were trying to pass off a much older part as the damaged item. Sadly, will not be using this company again.”

“We’ve always used wheelspin models and have brought 2 nitro cars over the past 5years or so. Last week we spent a total of £70 on parts including a pull start for our 1 hpi (We’ve had this model for 5 years and it’s the first time we have had to change the pull start). As soon as we got home we put it on and tried it and it broke on first pull without even starting the car. We called the shop and spoke to someone called SIMON who said bring it back and I’ll take a look at it. So that’s what we did living 14 miles away the following week, to be told by a very rude SIMON that its not under warranty and they can’t change it. I’m completely disgusted with the service I received, and will not be using Wheelspin Models again and as for SIMON he is really in the wrong industry.”

“bought a truck it broke on the 2nd day "unsatisfactory quality" i was refused a refund and they think the consumer rights act don't apply to them --Under the Consumer Rights Act you have a legal right to reject goods that are of unsatisfactory quality, unfit for purpose or not as described, and get a full refund https://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/regulation/consumer-rights-act”

“Wanted to order parts, found the manufactures part number, wheel spin said that they didn’t list it. Couldn’t be bothered to check with the manufacturer. Not helpful at all, having spent over £500 with them I shall be going elsewhere next time.”
