I usually make my orders on the wknd so they start on it Monday morning and it’ll usually arrive on the Thursday of that wk . one thing I will also say is keep checking there site regularly as A; they have some corking discounts and B; when somthing is out of stock it gets pulled from there web page so it’s not listed anymore (one of the things I do like about them , there’s no “oooh I’ve been after one of those for ages !” And when you do click on it ? it’s out of stock !🤬) and only goes back up when back in stock .👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends if there linked or not (like in Bristol you’ve got Cribbs causeway and Portishead both owned by black ops) other wise I ‘think’ it’s the same site as they need to be able to confirm you’ve played the three games in the correct time frame .

StayOnTarget Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Just over a week ago I placed my first order to TaiwanGun and thanks to some great advice from Druid799 had zero problems in fact they have been the best so far for me and that is high praise indeed as I thought no one could top the service I've had from China,good communication, everything came in good time (8 days from ordering) was well packaged and in perfect condition.I've just placed another order with them for a chest rig and mag pouches(cheap as chips) and will do business with them in the future too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So would appear Paypal actually DO list to there customers! Two months later they're still charging an extra 4.5% (!) for PayPal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Druid799 Posted March 15, 2019 Supporters Share Posted March 15, 2019 Have contacted Paypal and the reply was “it’s company policy not to go in too case details but after speaking with the retailer there is no further action needed ! “ So basically it’s a case of we’re still getting our cut so screw you ! 🤬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted March 16, 2019 Supporters Share Posted March 16, 2019 Thanks for chasing this up. So their rules are more what you'd call guidelines? Sad times, sad times. Ah, it turns out that only UK merchants are strictly prohibited from surcharging. Others are simply "not encourage[d]" to do so. https://www.paypal.com/ee/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resistor170 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Ordered a couple of 8fields leg pouches Sunday, arrived today (Thursday) which is quicker than some places I've ordered from here in the UK. £7 each which is rediculously cheap and was the only place I found selling them. Postage and yes PayPal charge was total of about £13. £27 paid in total and for me was worth ordering. I haven't saved loads of money but they seemed to be the only place that had what I wanted. Very happy, will use again if it makes sense to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thesman106 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Has anyone got issues regarding the postcode? It asks for "AA9 9AA" but my postcode is "A9 9AA". How do I get around this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go in to your account details and change the format of your post code (this happened to me too) it needs to be one continues word without the gap so you have WX123YZ instead of WX12 3YZ .👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagal99 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Probably already answered this question, but When ordering from these guys, do you just need the UKASA number and your personal details etc and it gets through customs ok? Just planning to make a first order from them and don’t want HMRC burning my kit. My postcode works fine by the way, but did have to put it all in caps!

EDcase Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Yes, with UKARA you'll be fine. When ordering an AEG, you can request them to restrict fps to 350 for free. (Duno if they replace the spring or chop it though) If you don't request it then you may have to change it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
