Very disappointed because of the total lack of communication. The most important thing is to warn us if a problem arises with the suppliers, which is the least we can do.

I pre-ordered two figurines from them, and when I got to the pre-order end date for the second figurine, I was worried that I wouldn't receive a delivery notice, so I checked the site, which had shifted the pre-order end date by 1 month without notifying the customer. When I contacted customer service, they explained that there was a delay in delivery on one of the two figurines, and that if I wanted to receive the first figurine, which was available, in advance, I'd have to pay additional delivery charges. In the end, I received both figurines three months late...

I've placed several orders with them in the past, all of which went well, but my last one was a bit more complicated, as a product had been awaiting delivery from the supplier for months, with no indication of how long it would take.After almost a year's delay on my order, and several messages to the store trying to get more information or to unblock my order, I had to insist a lot (I had to wait several weeks for my request to go through) before they finally gave me some information. The lady at the after-sales service (very kind and competent) told me on the phone that she thought the supplier was taking them for a ride and would never deliver the product in question, but if that's the case, I find it incomprehensible that they don't contact the customers concerned to keep them informed, or at the very least post this information on the site's forum. This way, the people concerned can cancel their product if they wish. But here it's up to each customer to insist on being told that their order will never arrive if the product is not cancelled, so I had to cancel the product for my order to be released. Overall, if there are no unforeseen product availability problems, the store manages very well. This experience won't stop me from recommending them, but you should be aware that sometimes you have to be persistent to get information about your orders.

Hello, thank you for your feedback. We are working on a new version of the website in which we will be able to automatically notify our customers when a pre-order is delayed or when the release date of a product is postponed.

Pre-ordered figurine, received several months later. In a strange way, it was wrapped in bubble wrap (the figurine in the box) it was very badly made with a defect on the head, I was offered a coupon for 10% off but I found it light all the same. I still don't know if it's an official figurine or not, at least it doesn't look like the photos, what a shame. It's the Raphaël figurine from the anime Moi quand je me réincarise en slime. We'll have to see what condition the figurine is in for a future purchase. But the "bubble wrap" packaging already tipped me off. For this reason, I can't recommend this site highly enough.

HelloIt says on our website that we sell 100% official figurines. If you take a closer look at our site, you'll also see the words: Banpresot/Bandai partner. Unless Banpresto is making counterfeits, which is impossible, your figurine is official. It's not uncommon for figurines costing around 30 euros to have manufacturing defects. They're mass-produced in factories. As I reread your conversation history, it seems to me that my colleague suggested several solutions. It was you who decided to keep the figurine and take the 10% discount code. You were perfectly free to return the figurine after I had given you a label (specified in the message) and ask for a refund, but you decided to keep it anyway. Sincerely

First time I've been disappointed with the store. Parcel received with no problem but the box of my figurine pushed in so it's that it was done at the time of the setting out of paperboard. Fortunately my figurine is fine, but I'm still disappointed and hope it's the last time this happens to me.

Hello No, our lotteries and sweepstakes are not rigged. When you play a lottery, you know what you're getting into. There are a lot of small lots for not a lot of figurines. And yes some win figurines, I invite you to see all our stories on instagram. It's a random draw. It's almost the same principle as if you buy a scratch game. And again, there you necessarily get a lot. Saying it's rigged because you won small prizes is bad faith. Just like your note.Cordially

I'm not likely to recommend them. I'm sent a figurine in a box in poor condition even though I'd asked them to check the condition of the boxes carefully, I'm told I have to send it back for a replacement and finally when they receive it they send me a message to tell me it's now out of stock and they're going to refund me instead. They really couldn't put one aside for me as soon as they knew I was sending mine back? I'm only giving two stars because customer service is quick to respond.

Hello,We are very sorry that your experience has been so negative. The pandemic situation has meant that many products have been postponed to a later date. Despite our reminders, we do not always obtain new dates. This is beyond our control. We try to communicate as much as possible about the information we have. There are 2 topics open on our forum (accessible to everyone) explaining the situation, giving new dates when we manage to get them. We change counters whenever possible. We're trying to work on a better communication tool. This takes time. However, we are always available to answer questions, whether via the networks or by contacting us, and we are never bothered to answer. The way a text is written can sometimes be misleading, with people thinking one thing when it's not the case. Our priority is to satisfy our customers. We apologize on behalf of our suppliers for this long delay and we also apologize for this sudden bad experience. Sincerely

★★☆☆☆
Very disappointed compared to the ratings on this site. You don't need to have a problem with the order because the after-sales service sucks. It's after having been on other site and forum concerning chibi akihabara to make me another opinion that I saw that it had full of problem already and that in addition to that it suppresses all bad opinion (perhaps that this one will be also).In any case never more I will order at them.Réponse à Chibi Akihabara:Bonjour,Oui je vois que sur ce site il n'y a pas filtrage autant pour moi je retirer ce que j'ai dit et tant mieux si c'est le cas.Yes you talk about reviews on this site but without talking about reviews on the internet, I asked around me people who are used to buying figurines online, your site is not very in praise too.A procedure that is not explained anywhere and I find that you explain poorly at first you offer me a 10 percent credit or an exchange. Then you tell me to break the figurine when it's already broken without any explanation. What you also forgot to mention is that if I send it back, I have to pay the shipping costs myself, even though I'm the one who received it broken. Yes, I didn't reply, I was advised to insist, but I don't think there's any point, so I've decided to close the case, and I don't feel like paying for the return parcel as well. It'll cost me less, but I'll try to get someone to repair it for me and cover up the breakage a bit. I still received a figurine where I have nothing to say but if you've looked on Truspilot you must have seen it I've noted it well because it corresponds to what I ordered." Truspilot with 1?227 and a verified company flag. It's true that 89% positive reviews from many different customers doesn't carry much weight" as you say in this sentence so you don't have to worry about any negative reviews will not harm your sales and your regular customers.I also wish you a good dayCordially.

Hello There is no filtering possible on Truspilot. All reviews posted by customers are visible and you can see (with a minimum of research on the platform) that negative reviews of Chibi are also present. It's easy to come and criticize our customer service without giving away your concerns. After checking your order reference, we've noticed that YOU refuse the procedure for changing figurines. This procedure is required by our supplier in order to replace the product. We've also offered you the alternative of returning the product to us, but to date we've had no response from you. It's up to you if you prefer to believe sites or forums where there are only negative reviews of our company, rather than a site like Truspilot with 1,227 and a verified company flag. It's true that 89% positive reviews from many different customers don't carry much weight. Wishing you a very good day.

I placed a pre-order and the figurine arrived after 5 months, more than one of which was late. The figurine itself is perfect. However, the support to hold it is very crooked. As a result, it tilts a lot and sometimes falls for no reason.

HelloWe are sorry that you are not satisfied with your order. Please note that we are dependent on our suppliers and that product delays are not our fault. An article was posted on our forum explaining the delivery delays. No matter how hard we try to contact our suppliers, we cannot send packages with nothing in them simply to respect the dates, which are only indicative. You have the option of returning it to us (at your expense and in its original boxes) and requesting a refund, bearing in mind that we are resellers and not manufacturers. We have no control over the products leaving the factory. Defects on the figurine are not our fault and are sadly common on Banpresto/Bandai Spirits products.
