Our website uses a Shopify Payment Gateway and Klarna Payment Gateway to securely process all of the transactions that are made on our website. No card details are entered on our website or are stored on our website. We only accept GBP transactions through our Shopify Payment Gateway and we accept Visa, Maestro and Mastercard.

Purchase of Prohibited Goods

For any age restricted items we will only fulfil an order once we have reasonable grounds to believe you are over 18 which can include:

  • Photocopy of ID with name, date of birth and address (i.e. driving license)
  • Photocopy of Passport with name & date of birth with accompanying document to show address
  • Any other acceptable identification materials that will allow us to verify you are over the age of 18

When sending documents to us by email, please remember to omit by blanking out any sensitive information (i.e. Passport number) before delivery.

If we are not provided with appropriate information requested to verify over 18 status, this could delay your order delivery or lead to cancellation.

Purchase of Realistic Imitation Firearms

Due to the current British law it is illegal to sell any realistic imitation firearm to anyone apart from to the following people or organisations;

  • Registered UKARA Members or members of legitimate airsoft sites
  • Museum or gallery
  • Theatrical performances
  • Films and television programmes
  • Historical re-enactments events
  • Members of re-enactment or military vehicle groups
  • Crown servants

We must obtain proof that you fall into one of these groups before we can send your order. Acceptable proof would be;

  • Your site membership ID which we will verify on the UKARA database
  • A letter from the museum or theatre company
  • A letter from the commissioning film/TV company
  • A copy of your re-enactment/military vehicle membership card
  • Proof of employment (Crown Servant)

Over 18's without airsoft or re-enactors membership will only be able to purchase an imitation firearm painted in a non-realistic colour. We provide this service for a small fee where applicable and where the option is available it will be presented on the page for the item you are purchasing. You must be over 18 to in order to make a purchase of any airsoft realistic imitation firearm or imitation firearm.

Please take note that unless an imitation firearm comes from factory in the non-realistic colour requirements by law, then the service of painting a Realistic Imitation Firearm into an Imitation Firearm are excluded from our returns policy. This also extends to any special services or bespoke products unless stated otherwise.

Returns

Your rights to return goods are protected under the UK Distance Selling Rules.

You are entitled to cancel your order and return the goods within 14 days of items being received for a full refund under our money back guarantee, including the cost of delivery. Do this by contacting us by email (info@a2supplies.co.uk) or telephone (0118 956 1411) and quoting the order number supplied to you. Your refund will be paid within 14 days of returned goods being received and not before. You are responsible for the cost and risk or loss or damage when returning the goods, so you should take out enough postal insurance to cover their value. This cancellation policy does not affect your rights when we are at fault - for example, if goods are faulty or are not as described. Any items returned must be "AS NEW", un-opened, un-used and in the original, undamaged packaging and must not be missing any items from the packaging including any items that come inside packaging. No refunds will be given on any product that has been damaged by negligence, carelessness or misuse.

If an item is faulty, we reserve the right to either commit a repair on the item or dispatch a replacement product. This will not happen until the originally purchased goods are returned and are confirmed to be faulty by our engineers. If it is found the item was not faulty, you will be contacted regarding your options.

In the unlikely event that the item you have purchased is delivered to you in a non-working, faulty state then we must be contacted within 48 hours of receipt. Any longer may invalidate your claim where the item is “Dead on Arrival”. Please contact us at info@a2supplies.co.uk within the time allotted above.

Our engineers are experienced and authorised by manufacturers, where applicable, to undertake repair and remedial work. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair, disassemble or modify the items you have purchased from A2 Supplies. Doing so will invalidate your warranty and void your item from our returns policy.

Please follow any advice given by A2 Supplies on the purchase of your products concerning care of the item, upkeep and its maintenance. Failure to follow advice given by the employees of A2 Supplies Ltd or using purchased items with incompatible equipment that could damage your item will invalidate your warranty.

None of these terms affect your legal rights and these are not diminished in any way. If any term is held to be invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, that term is automatically omitted from the terms to minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder.

If items are returned for refund, the refund will be made back to yourself in the method of payment you used to purchase the item initially. Card for card, PayPal for PayPal, cash for cash etc. We will not refund an item monetarily or to a different payment type due to potential fraudulent activities.

These terms apply to your order. We may change our terms and conditions at any time, so please do not assume that the same terms will apply in the future.

If you have any complaints, please do not hesitate to contact us to try to resolve the matter. We do partake in the Alternative Dispute Resolution Regulations 2015 Directive and the portal for making a complaint if we cannot resolve the issue amicably is here: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/
