**AVOID AT ALL COST**

I bought a Pokemon etb from this place at the time I did not notice but when I got home and opened it in the evening i had realised it was re sealed the wrapper was re sealed both side of the etb was not like any others soon as I pulled it it ripped away once I opened the etb inside card that holds everything together was all bent as if it’s bin taken out the trash dices was out of the packet divider out the plastic bag and packs was all re sealed filled with commons and energy No rares or shinies I called them up a few times and once they finally answered they said they check all their items and cut me off I rang again and the guy who had sold me the etb just said he wasn’t aware that I called but told me no refunds like he knew what I purchased. AVOID AT ALL COST only good for scamming and taking your money 65£ for an etb

Order was cancelled without any…

Order was cancelled without any communication after 1 week of waiting despite the order being in stock. At least it has been refunded. Does not appear to actually be a functioning online store.

Amazing 1st visit to a passionate shop

My 1st visit to a gaming shop in the West Midlands after only buying online or from larger retail stores, and this store has the greatest community and service I have found in the UK.

The shop is filled with all types of figures and cards, old and new, Pokemon, Warhammer, One piece and more, all of which are sure to interest any collector. These products are all offered at fair prices that rival any of the bigger chain stores out there.

The owner is friendly, knowledgeable and very passionate about providing a space for his community and you can see from the customers playing, laughing and joking in a lively, welcoming atmosphere that he is succeeding!

Plus this shop also offers postage of products and help look for particular cards or sets for genuine collectors.

In an industry that is struggling due to the huge number of scalpers, I am so grateful to have found a shop and community of dedicated collectors to share my love for my hobby and buy the products I want at a good price!

Ignores calls and emails. Scam.

I placed an order over a week ago online, expecting swift delivery as advertised on their website. I first contacted them because I wanted to talk about changing my order. No reply.

I then saw all the poor reviews about Battleground Gaming being a scam and not fulfilling online orders.

I have emailed several times and no reply. I have rung the number that is supposed to go to the shop many times and they never answer.

My order is sat pending and I cannot contact them to cancel it. I am afraid they have taken my money and I will have to escalate this matter to the bank.

If anyone from Battleground Gaming in Birmingham reads this; reach out and make things right with the customers who are waiting for their orders.

Very slow postage, damaged on arrival and no communication via email

Similar experience to others, doesn't respond to emails. Eventually marks as shipped but then doesn't drop off at the Post Office for a week (Post Office is only 3 doors down from the shop).
After 27 days of waiting the game eventually arrived, internal box torn and crushed, again no response on email.
If local then buy in store but the online experience has been pretty terrible.

Scammer

Takes the money, doesn’t send items, doesn’t reply to correspondence - a scammer, pure and simple

Having to try and reclaim the money via my bank, which is not good for an expensive order.

Do not use this company!

Scam - avoid like the plague

Ordered a GW preorder, marked as dispatched last week with Royal Mail 48 and still marked as waiting to receive. No reply to email even though on social media are updating posts today and showcasing ordered product. Other reviews posted over last couple of days mirror my experience, absolute scam of a company

Battleground Gaming is an awful company…

Battleground Gaming is an awful company and please avoid.

I placed an order on 18/12 for my son's xmas present. There was a banner saying the last day for xmas deliveries was 20/12 so well within this. I've emailed them a number of times and called and there's been no response.

Today is 24/12 and there is an email saying the item has been dispatched and using the Royal Mail tracking there are no updates. I paid £4.50 for the privilege of shipping. The company is a joke and I will be raising this with my credit card company. Please avoid and shop elsewhere. I now have a disappointed son.

Ordered a couple of minis and still waiting for them to be shipped after a week, I have emailed them, messaged them on Facebook and tried calling a few times to see when they would be shipped but no answer and left on read on Facebook, I wouldn't recommend, I am now going to have to get in touch with my bank for a refund. Won't be bothering with these again, avoid.

Avoid

No communication a week after a large order, no response to emails/calls, now having to dispute the payment with my bank which will take months. Avoid at all costs

SCAM

Ordered a Warhammer box set and was sent an order confirmed email a month and a half later id heard nothing and they had ignored my emails regarding the order. Do not buy from them. Will take your money then ignore you and send nothing.
