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.

My problems started when they sent the…

My problems started when they sent the wrong item. I ordered the Met Rivale helmet, but they sent a far more expensive aero helmet, the Met Trenta. I did the right thing by contacting them to inform them. Problem 1, they weren't precise about what to photograph for them, so that took a few days. Problem 2, to return an item, it's basically an export out of the non-EU UK to the EU. Which involves filling out several customs forms and visiting a UPS office. Problem 3: Their instructions differed from the forms instructions, in terms of how many copies of which forms you have to attach where. Problem 4: They told me the package was stuck in customs and I had filled out the form incorrectly, but hadn't provided specific guidance on exactly what to say. Problem 5: They lied about it being stuck. They had not paid the fee. I discovered their lie by visiting the UPS office and reviewing the details. Problem 6: The issue took three weeks to resolve. While they eventually refunded me, I had to chase each and every action. They were completely reactive, and while they apologized, they did not take any responsibility. For example, "Dear customer, thank you for your reply.

You filled the form incorrectly and therefore the package is now stopped in customs.

The form had to be filled with the information of the product you received.

All information was present on the product package."

I mean, what???!!! I put down the correct (incorrect item), so they are again misleading me. And then to put it like that??

So in conclusion, given that they have accidently sent the wrong item, and mislead, delay, and gaslight you at every opportunity, I will never again be able to order from them. I urge you, in the UK, to boycott this company until they can improve their customer service and QC processes.

Note that I do not blame them to sending the wrong product. People make mistakes, I make more mistakes than anybody else. But to hang me out to dry like this, and not offer even a token of remorse speaks volumes.

Dear customer,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
Unfortunately there has been a problem in our inventory and the wrong product has been shipped. It was kind of you to inform us about this and we thank you very much. We have proceeded to prepare a return label at our expense in order to collect the product delivered to you. The instructions have been sent through email along with the label we prepared. We also advised you that for any question, you could contact us again.
Few days after you dispatched the parcel, we received communication from the customs that the shipment has been stopped because on the customs form you wrote "I don't know some details because you sent me the wrong items which I am returning". Please understand that writing a message like this on an official export document causes complications in clearance.
We have therefore provided the necessary information in order to clear this parcel from customs.
Once we received the package, we have proceeded to issue you the refund.
We apologize again for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your understanding.
Kind Regards
Lordgun Team

My first order from Lordgun…

I placed my first order from Lordgun recently. I’m in the U.S. and was concerned about the shipping charges and how long it would take to receive my package, but because the prices were so good I decided to order anyway. The shipping charges ended up being very fair and the package arrived at my door in only 3 days! Fantastic selection, excellent prices and great service! I definitely give Lordgun 5 stars and will be ordering from them again soon!

I had a quite good service from Lord Gun but what I wasn’t prepared for is the huge increase in price for a parcel I had delivered. £100, apparently this is due to custom charges. Some indication of this could be presented at checkout instead of a misleading invoice, stating the price is cheaper. It seems funny that a complete bike coming from another EU country doesn’t incur any custom charges yet a battery does?! Beware. I was also refused a return!

Dear customer,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
We are sorry to hear that the custom charges have inflated the price of your purchase, however unfortunately custom procedures are out of our control and therefore we cannot advise clients in advance how much the additional fees will be.
However we inform the client in the cart that there are additional charges to be paid at the time of delivery, and a pop up window with information regarding custom fees is shown before proceeding to checkout.
In order to continue to the payment page, the customer must click on the “I understand, proceed” button.
Please note that all international shipments are subject to custom control and consequently subject to import fees.

Watch Out for Extra Charges from the EU

Ordered from the UK without realising the item would incur significant customs charges on arrival. Although Lordgun technically displays a message during checkout, the implications aren’t made clear enough - especially given the post-Brexit changes.

Judging by other reviews, I’m far from the only UK customer caught out. Support was unhelpful and pointed to the small print rather than acknowledging any fault. I reluctantly paid the charges, but I wouldn’t order from them again.

Found the seat post at a great price

Found the seat post at a great price, fully aware of UK import duties to pay. Updating the information was trouble free, with updates to tracking from Italy into the UK. Once through UK customs, delivery was quick. Have not fitted the new drop post yet, tested and works brill, as to replace the the original given my style of riding. Recommend the company, but you must be prepared and be patient that duties are paid for items over £135.00 sterling, prior to release and sending on, Parcel Force charge £12.00 for this pleasure, as acting on behalf of HMRC.

P.s. Date I received was in June, actual date?

They may tempt you but a low price but be warned. I ordered two identical tyres and they sent me two different tyres, it took over a week and daily emails until they accepted it was there mistake and then another two weeks to get a resolution. They needed customs forms printing and receipt printing and other documents but I don’t have a printer and they had to be printed. It was the worst support I have ever received and I will never use them again. If they had sent the correct tyres all would of been good BUT if you have an issue be prepared to give up a whole load of your time and stress

Dear customer,

thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.

We apologize for the wrong products that have been sent to you. Once we checked our records and we confirmed that the products dispatched were not the ones you ordered, we requested you for information for creating a collection label.

Our assistance has prepared the collection label and sent it to you, however you informed us later that you don't have a printer at home to print it.

In order to provide a fast solution, we have provided you a partial refund and you kept the products received.

Unfortunately we cannot make an estimate of the amount that will be collected, since these fees are charged by the customs. It is not possible to provide a different quote for Custom Duties asked for, these must be entirely covered and paid for by the customer.
However we inform the client in the cart that there are additional charges to be paid at the time of delivery, and a pop up window with information regarding custom fees is shown before proceeding to checkout. The message states: "The prices shown include UK VAT.

No possible return process

I have a faulty Shimano pedal, which is defect within the warranty period. I try to find the return policy but no chance you can find the “request return” button or contact with the customer service

All I can do is reach out to Shimano. Let’s hope this will work

As we have explained you through email, your product cannot be returned because it is used and it has been purchased last year. Our returns section is dedicated to clients who wish to send back unused items, within 30 days from the date of receipt of the order.

Fulcrum HG 11 Hub 17mm axle

Ordered part, per description hub was compatible. In fact it was incompatible. Sent photos of fit, sent photos of emails from Fulcrum that stated incompatible. All Lordgun would say is part is compatible… despite photos and email from Fulcrum. Also would not change website description so you’re warned. Not all Fulcrum 17mm axles use same hub.

UPDATE - note logic of reply ignores issue as described - freehub is stated compatible with numerous 17mm axles/hubs, it was incompatible with 17mm Wind 55 - so if other customers bought for different 17mm hubs then could be compatible and no basis to complain. Email from Fulcrum shared with LG explained compatibility and identified specific (different) hub compatible with 17mm Wind axle but was willfully ignored.

Return was past 30 days, took some time to figure out (and if was as described not a product that would have issues).

Dear customer,
thank you for contacting us and sending us feedback.
The freehub body you purchased comes with the correct advsertisement and from the description of the wheel you provided us, this product should work without issues.
We also would like to point out that the same freehub has been purchased by numerous customers and we never received complaints about it.
Since you purchased the product from us last year, unfortunately it is not possible to return it. Returns of orders are accepted within 30 days from the date of receipt of the parcel. After this timeframe, we cannot accept a product back to our premises.

Worked well. Got a pair of tubeless tyres at a very reasonable price, even with delivery added. Arrived within 2-3 days too

High UPS brokerage fees

While the prices are good, shipping experience is terrible: first you pay UPS, then you pay UPS again.

Dear customer,

Our orders are sent from Italy, therefore for orders destined to countries outside the European Union, import charges apply.
These are not paid at checkout: custom charges are import taxes applied and collected by the customs of your country.
We inform the client in the cart that there are additional charges to be paid at the time of delivery, and a pop up window with information regarding custom fees is shown before proceeding to checkout.

Reliable Italian seller

Reliable seller, good price. Many customers complained about custom charges for import from Italy (Isn't Brexit great?). However everything is explained very clearly on the website, if you read the information.

Ordered a £400 dropper post in April

Ordered a £400 dropper post in April. It was the wrong size. I contacted Lordgun who advised to return the dropper seat for a refund.

I was advised to put the cost of the item at £20 to avoid import costs. Thought this was a bit strange but did as they directed me to do.

The postage was £35. The post office queried why would want to pay £35 to return a £20 part but I advised it was a specialist part.

Apparently the package is held up at Italian customs.

Lordgun advise they have not had any communication from them. I spoke to the Royal Mail who directed me to Parcelforce which directed me to what I assume is Italian customs.

No response.

Customer service not very helpful or polite.

I also got hit up with the £85 import costs from UPS upon delivery. Whilst it is stated in small bird seed it’s far too easy to miss. Feels like I’ve been misguided and looking at the reviews I am not the only one.

I will advise as many people as possible to avoid Lordgun.

Shocking and very costly experience.

Please note that we do not have influence over parcels that have been sent by clients. The sender is responsible for the shipment and in case there are issues, it is necessary that the person who sent the package contacts the courier service used.
Unfortunately we cannot advise why the parcel has been stopped in customs as we didn't receive information from the courier or the custom authorities.
A refund for a return can be issued only after the package is delivered to our facility.
