Making a Purchase
Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our website, and click on any items that you wish to buy and put them into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click on "Order" and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to satisfy the order.

b. Administer and enhance the site and service
c. Only disclose information to third-parties for goods delivery purposes
d. Send you future offers unless you decide to opt out.
Payment Options
We accept Visa and Mastercard Solo and Switch. As you are redirected to a third-party payment gateway (standard internet practice), your card details are taken by those organisations. Details of their security measures - PCI-DSS compliance - can be found on their websites.
Credit Card Security
All payments are made through a third party payment gateway. We do not store any card details for future use.

Back Orders
If your item is not in stock it will be placed on back order. We take deliveries from our suppliers weekly so your goods will normally be delivered in a maximum of 8 working days for postal items or 11 working days for hand delivered items. If there is a longer delay in getting hold of the item you will be contacted to give you the option of waiting or cancelling your order.
Delivery and Shipping
Because of new Legislation, from the 1st of October 2007 we are not allowed to send Air Rifles, Air Pistols or Silencers through the post.
We now deliver all the Airguns we sell using our own Vans, we aim to deliver all airguns across most of the UK, the rest of the items we sell on our website are sent by normal post on 1st class recorded delivery where possible, or by courier.
Products are delivered to the address specified by the customer on the purchase order, or where necessary to a works or alternative address by prior arrangement and only to geographic zones that we service. Please note that where goods are delivered to an address which is not the home address you will still need to produce a photo i.d. and proof of address such as a utility bill. We need to be able to verify your age, address and that the goods have been paid for by the person we are delivering to.
Shipping and Handling Delivery Terms
Where we use a third party to make a delivery (as with any shipment), a delay or loss of goods is possible. In such a case, the carrier shall start an investigation. Every effort is made, for as long as necessary, to find the package. If the package is not found, the carrier will reimburse Pellpax who will then deliver a new, identical package to the customer free of charge.
We shall not be held responsible for delayed delivery times due to the carrier, including for the loss of goods, bad weather or strikes.
Airguns are exempt from this policy due to the new VCR Act.
Loss or Damage in Transit
Pellpax will not be responsible for damage or loss of goods or part thereof in transit or for any discrepancy between the goods delivered and the goods ordered unless the customer gives written or email notice of a claim to Pellpax and the carrier within three (3) business days of delivery.
In the event of damage of goods or part thereof in transit or for any discrepancy between the goods delivered and the goods ordered, the customer must hold the goods and make them available for inspection or collection by Pellpax or its representatives on request.
Delivery Errors
The Customer must inform Pellpax immediately (the same day or, at the latest, the first business day following delivery) concerning any claim of delivery error or non-conformity of goods, in kind or in quality, compared with the information in the purchase order.
Any claim made after this time period may be rejected. All claims must be made in writing and sent to Pellpax or emailed to [email protected]
Any claim that does not respect the rules defined above cannot be taken into account and release Pellpax of any responsibility to the customer.
In the case of delivery error or exchange, all goods to be exchanged or refunded must be returned to Pellpax in whole, in its original packaging and in perfect condition to our business address in North Walsham
For claims to be accepted, the customer must first make a declaration to Pellpax concerning any returns and receive and Pellpax consent. If accepted, the customer will ship the package to our business address in North Walsham.
Shipping fees shall be at Pellpax expense, except in the case where the goods do not correspond to the original declaration made by the customer concerning the return, or a customer has simply changed their mind. Pellpax may waive any shipping costs where they will be visiting the customer with a replacement order or replacement goods.
Faulty Goods and Exchanges
All products leave our premises in perfect condition. The customer must notify the carrier (or postman) of even the slightest trace of damage (holes, signs of crushing, etc.) to the parcel prior to opening the parcel, and refuse the package if necessary. A new identical product will then be sent to the customer at no additional charge.
No exchanges can be made at a later time for goods claiming to be damaged during carriage following the opening of the package, without notification at time of reception.
Returns Policy
If you order an item and it isn't what you expected then we'll happily take most products back (within 14 days from date of receipt) as long as it is in unused, as new condition and in its original packaging.
Any non faulty items which are returned outside of 14 days from the date of receipt may be subject to a 20% restocking charge which will be deducted from the final refund.
All airguns returned to us must be sent via 48hr Parcel Force as they are classed as dangerous goods. Please do not send airguns back via standard post as airguns are not covered by their service and may be destroyed. Alternatively, we can collect the items from you using our fleet of drivers for a small collection fee.
Please note that ALL non-faulty items must be returned in saleable condition and in all original packaging otherwise a larger restocking figure may be applied as we will be unable to resell the item as new or at anything near its true value.
For some items, such as made-to-order, special ordered items or personal use or hygiene products unfortunately we are unable to take the products back. Additionally cancellations of special order / made to order items may incur a restocking fee. If you have any queries then please call us to ask for further details.
