Always very helpful and can source pretty much anything as long as it's in print. Prices very reasonable (less than GW prices). They run some great regular tournaments (GT and casual) and game nigh... See more

Hi Graeme, you ordered an item that has a significant delay on it from Games Workshop. We have the item on back order as advised at point of sale and it will ship when it's in stock.

Hi Debbie, your item went out of stock with our supplier which is an unfortunately an incident out of our control and supply issues are endemic across the industry at the moment. When you got in touch we refunded the item. We did supply the parts of your order that were in stock. We refunded when you got in touch. We have limited agency with suppliers which I appreciate is frustrating but we take them at their word. T

Very Poor Service

Delivery was supposed to be by 23rd December. The game I ordered as a Christmas present on 9th December has still not arrived and my e mail querying this has not been answered. Yet they can find time to send me an e mail requesting a review of my purchase - it's a joke!
In response to the reply the restock date advertised on the website when I ordered was in December- before Christmas.

Hi Tracey, the item was advertised with the advice it would be restocked in January. Unfortunately your desire to receive it as a Christmas gift has no influence on this situation. We tried our best to source it for you and refunded when you made it clear you wanted it ahead of the advised date.

Unclear site and unprofessional customer service

It never arrived, which I later found out, was due to a reprint issue which was not clear. Customer service does take a while to respond and they can become quite unprofessional. I have since asked for a refund and received it straight away. It’s unfortunate that my experience was not the best with this company.

Hi Alysha, thanks for your review. Apologies that you found us unprofessional - I think email doesn't always make things the most easy but I was trying to explain the reprint process and I understand you felt this wasn't' clear. I've fed this back to the team and we will take on board.

Great prices on some great products

Great prices on some great products. I can’t believe how much I got the tyrannical wars book for. Absolute bargain! Kirton will be my go to site when looking for products. I’ve let my friends know about them.
Thanks guys!

Avoid, product not delivered, no communication

Ordered at the start of November and not heard anything since.

I reached out last week via email and have heard nothing back.

Not had any confirmation of order sent/tracking information but they have taken my money

Avoid! Poor communication and even worse customer service

----------------------
Update:

Since this review was posted I have received a refund, and responded to this review. This is the first communication I've had with this company since my initial order.

The wording of their response below clearly shows no remorse for the mistake and an appalling attitude to customer service.

When I placed the order at the start of December the email clearly states that it would be delivered in 2-5 working days. There is literally no information in the email the item was out of stock.

This raises a further question, why take people's money when you don't have the item in stock?

I do take back my comment about you being a scam and upgrade this review from 1* to 2* , however, it will remain at a low level as that's the service you have provided me. The title remains the same as it's accurate.

- took my order early November with no information it was out of stock
- didn't respond to my customer service message politely asking for an update on the 25th
- only refunded me after this review and I started a dispute via the shop app.
- responded to this review by displaying your awful attitude to customer service rather than acknowledging you made a mistake

At any point had you properly communicated to me that there was an issue with GW and apologised this review would still not be so low.

Sort your attitude and customer service/information out.

Matthew's item was out of stock with Games Workshop and he was aware of this when he ordered. Games Workshop are having massive logistics issues at the moment due to their warehouse move. As a small business we are unfairly taking the brunt of unhappy customers who want to order things that Games Workshop are not advising them cannot be supplied. Frankly to be called scam artists when we have been trading for ten years and undertake massive amounts of work to try and get items to customers across the UK is insulting. Still, you can't win them all.

Edit: I note the retraction. We have communicated directly that we are sorry for the delay and the issue and will be reviewing and ensuring this doesn't happen again.

Wargames and hobby superstore!

I had an absolutely fantastic experience shopping at Kirton Games! Their wide range of gaming products, combined with their knowledgeable and friendly staff, made finding what I needed a breeze. The lightning-fast delivery and competitive prices were the icing on the cake. Kirton Games truly stands out in terms of both quality and service, and I can't recommend them enough to fellow gamers. Thanks to their brilliance, speed, and great prices, I'll definitely be returning for all my gaming needs!
