Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 158 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many consumers report that the pricing is very good, often cheaper than UK alternatives, and some appreciate receiving items quickly. People find the service rapid, with mentions of items arriving within a week or even within a couple of hours of ordering. However, some people mentioned dealing with unexpected and high customs and tariff charges upon arrival.

Order two MTB helmets as there was none of the preferred brand in stock in the UK. They were delivered quickly and at a competitive price. Would definitely use Lordgun again.

Costly returned from the UK - don't buy from UK !

I bought the wrong battery model for my bike – my fault. But returning it has been an absolute nightmare. I’ve lost over £300 in customs and VAT charges, just to send back a €450 item. These costs are non-refundable to the customer and Lordgun sales were taking no part into helping, and the process to even understand them has been painfully slow and unclear. I still don’t know the full customs cost on the inbound leg i can reclaim, and I’ve been told I can’t claim anything back from the Italian side. Honestly, I’d have been better off reselling it on eBay. I don’t understand why Lordgun markets to the UK without warning customers about the ridiculous return costs. I followed the return policy and still got burned. It makes no sense and has left the worst experience. Lordgun should be responsible for import and export, include in price and reclaim themselves. Lordgun should be banned from selling in UK

Dear Caroline,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
Please note that we ship worldwide from Italy, and for customers outside the European Union, import duties and customs fees are determined and collected by the local customs authorities prior to delivery. These charges are not included in your purchase at checkout and must be paid directly to the courier, who will provide payment instructions.
Unfortunately, we are unable to estimate these fees in advance, as they vary depending on the destination country and are calculated independently by local customs offices. We understand that these additional costs can be unexpected, and we sincerely regret any inconvenience this may have caused.
In the case of a return, should customs charges be applied to the parcel upon its return to us, these costs must also be covered by the customer. You can find further details in our Terms and Conditions here:
https://www.lordgunbicycles.co.uk/help/returns-and-refunds-outside-european-union
We have processed your refund for the value of the item, deducting the customs charges we had to advance to the courier in order to receive the returned parcel.
We're glad we could assist you by providing the necessary documentation to support your request for a customs duty refund.
Should you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
Kind Regards
Lordgun Team

Used Lordgun a few times now

Used Lordgun a few times now. Usually the cheapest out there and everything always arrives on or before the date predicted for delivery. And love the free sticker that often comes in the parcels

Great service

The item ordered, just a headset, arrived very quickly and considering that it shipped from Italy was even more remarkable. I would definitely shop with them again.

Best price i could find

Bought a Bell full face helmet, it was cheaper than anywhere else including delivery. As it was just under £135 there was no import duty to pay. Got recommended this site from a friend who did pay import duty as his item was over £500. It still worked out cheaper than anywhere else. Highly recommend

Great service all round!

I have purchased from Lordgun a couple times now as the items I wanted could either not be found at any UK retailer or the savings was that significant!

Each time the transaction was smooth and very quick, I used expedited service each time, and got my items very quickly! As others have mentioned, this is an Italian company, so beware of how much you spend in one transaction else you will end up paying import duties. You can easily look this figure up on the UK Government homepage, currently this figure is £135.

Honestly, not sure why this company doesnt have a higher rating, I think people are being to critical sometimes, I will definitely continue to buy from them in the future.

Five star service

Five star service. Super fast delivery from Europe. Super low prices. Great customer service. In the years I’ve been a customer, I’ve never had one issue.

If I could give 0 I would

If I could give 0 I would. I have never, ever experienced such a bad experience with any online purchase I have ever made.

Originally I purchased this item which was advertised with a different saddles pictures. As per my surprise when I received it I requested the item to be returned since what they ve sent was not the item I purchased. That process had already taken several days to be resolved.
They asked me to return per the Ups return label they have sent me and that I will receive my refund after they collect the item.

One month has gone by and after having to contact them over 15 times the saddle is still trying to reach their warehouse and they don't pay to receive it. They kept on replying back to me "rest assured we ll take of the delivery". Still my item is stuck somewhere in Italy and still I have not received my refund for their mistake yet.

The return started on the 17th of July and today is the 16th of August.

Dear customer,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
The product you received was correct, however there was an error on our advertisement and the photo associated to the product was wrong. In order to make our checks we required few days since we have many cases to follow. Once we confirmed our error, we sent you a prepaid label so that you could send us the product without paying for shipping.
Unfortunately the package has been stopped in customs and has been kept there for a long time. We have sent numerous requests to the courier so that the process could be accelerated, however we have been told that we must await that customs finish their procedures. Sadly this is something completely out of our control.
Your parcel has been delivered to our facility today, therefore once we finish processing the contents we will issue your refund.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.
Kind Regards

Faulty item

When item finally arrived after it was late being delivered, I fitted the item and found to be faulty. I filled out the online return form and provided pictures of the faulty item they rejected my return request, so now I've paid for an item I can't use.
Overall delivery, product quality and customer support is very poor.

Speed of service has been great

I have used Lordgun 3 times now in the last 6-9 months. If I want something fast, delivery gets here faster than any retailers in the UK, even if you pay for next day delivery, as they don't necessarily despatch the same day. All 3 orders so far have been delivered within 24 hours of order. Prices plus fast shipping is generally cheaper on many products than I can buy in the UK. Lordgun have always despatched (if ordered before midday) within a couple of hours. If you are a UK resident, as long as your order is less than £135 you should have no duty charges.
I have nothing but praise for Lordgun and the speed of their service. I have never had to return anything yet, so cannot comment on their returns service. I will definitely be using them again

Price is good but poor experience

Price is good but delivery experience terrible and I wouldn't purchase from Lordgun again. I paid extra for expedited delivery but wasn't sent delivery tracking details so only received the package a month later when I chased Lordgun up for details... very poor! They wouldn't then refund the extra I paid for fast shipping which was disappointing.

Update: Lordgun have told me that they did send me the shipping details but they weren't able to provide any evidence of this, and I couldn't find any emails from them even after a thorough search of my inbox & junk mail. Still no refund for the extra I paid for fast shipping.

Dear Oliver,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
We're truly sorry to hear about your delivery experience and understand how frustrating this must have been, especially after opting for expedited shipping. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.
We apologize for the lack of communication regarding your tracking details and the delay in receiving your order. Unfortunately we don't know why the tracking information has not been received, because from our system it results that the automatic email with the tracking number has correctly been sent to you.
All our orders come with a tracking reference: if you do not receive the tracking information after few days from placing your order, you are welcome to contact our assistance and we are happy to help you.
Kind Regards

Trusted European Supplier Serving UK Shoppers

Scored a great deal on cycling shoes with fast shipping. Product matched the description perfectly. Paid customs fees due to UK import rules after Brexit, not the seller’s fault. Lordgun’s honesty and service were top-notch.

Beware of shipping

Bought a bike helmet here, but unbeknown to me it shipped from Italy. This wasn't clear at purchase as the website looks very very UK based. It didn't fit and I had to ship it back to Italy at my own cost for a refund. So basically beware buying from here based on your location.

Avoid

Avoid, they are scam, they charged my credit card, and ask me to pay again through PayPal.

Dear customer,
thank you for placing feedback.
You have filed a dispute with your bank because customs have charged import fees on your order. Since our base is located in Italy and all orders are shipped from here, for extra EU clients duty fees apply to the shipment when it reaches the destination country. Unfortunately custom procedures are out of Lordgun's control and therefore we cannot make a quote in advance. However we inform in the cart that for clients living outside the EU, additional charges might apply before delivery. For US clients in particular, the following message is shown:
“The shipment is sent from the EU and orders destined for the USA may be subject to customs control at the destination with import tax and possible handling charges. The Trump administration has recently introduced tariffs on imported goods to the U.S. (e.g., EU origin +10%, China +34%, Vietnam +46%, Taiwan +32%, Japan +24%, etc.) that will greatly affect the final price of the purchased goods”.
You have been refunded for the total amount of the order through the dispute you filed, however you have already received the goods back in June. Since the order has correctly been delivered, payment of the order must be settled in full, which is why we sent you a Payment request through email.
Kind Regards

I found a really good price for me but…

I found a really good price for me but returned it as a tax are too high on delivery not their fault but it’s taken over six weeks and I still haven’t had the money paid back into my account. I have contacted them many times and they say they are waiting for the amount that the shipping would charge, but that’s not my problem, but I’m still waiting.

Dear customer,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
Unfortunately from your username we cannot trace the order, however in case the parcel is returned to the sender for custom charges not paid, a refund is issued once the parcel is delivered back to our facility and the courier provides official details of the costs that incurred in returning the parcel.
This procedure can take some time as the invoice is issued by the courier's staff and without it we cannot calculate the amount of the refund.
You are welcome to contact our customer service for a status update of your order.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Kind Regards
