What MPZ does
MPZ runs an online marketplace for collectible model aircraft.
Items are sold by the sellers who list them. When you buy, your contract of sale is with that seller, not with MPZ. MPZ provides the website, takes your payment for the order through our payment provider Stripe, and charges a service fee per checkout.
Business and private sellers
Every listing shows whether the seller is a business seller or a private seller, based on what the seller has told us.
- If you buy from a business seller, you have the protection of EU consumer law. For example, you have in most cases a 14-day right to cancel, and the item must be as described and fit for purpose (the legal guarantee of conformity).
- If you buy from a private seller, those consumer rights do not apply to that sale. You have no legal right to cancel, but you can still raise an issue from your order if something is wrong.
Our Terms and Conditions, Seller Terms, Returns and refunds page and Privacy Policy explain the details. You can find them at the bottom of every page.
Questions and complaints
Email support@modelplanezone.nl or use the form on our Contact Us page. We aim to reply within 2 working days.
Problem with an order? Raise it from the order in My Orders, so the seller sees it straight away. If you cannot agree, we review the issue. Our Terms and Conditions explain how.
