Your Details

When you register with the GWAS website, you must choose a contact email address and password. You are responsible for all sessions and transactions taken under these details. You must keep your password safe and not disclose it to anyone. You should change it immediately if you feel it has been compromised.

Making A Purchase

Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our store and add any items you wish to buy into the shopping cart. After you have finished your selection, click ‘Checkout’, and you will be asked for any details needed to complete the order. We accept PayPal, credit and debit card payments through the website. If you are shopping from North America or elsewhere outside the UK, your credit card company will convert the transaction to your currency using the current exchange rate. We also accept Visa and Mastercard for orders placed by post.

Although we charge for any items at the time of order, we will refund the amount paid if the items are unavailable and cannot be back-ordered.

Please note that we currently cannot sell to customers based in the EU. We apologies for this, but the current Value Added Tax and customs rules are prohibitive for our small organization.
