CLOSING DOWN SALE ! NOW 50% OFF OR MORERead more...
This does NOT in any way affect Ground Zero, the GZ Site Shop, or the National Airsoft Festival.
These are all separate entities and it is very much business as usual for all the above!
However, as they say, all good things must come to an end eventually, and it is with much regret I announce that after 27 years as the UK’s oldest airsoft retailer, it has become necessary to close down the retail side of the business. This means that Zero One will stop offering mail order from the warehouse, repair services will cease, and the showroom will close down over the next couple of months, as remaining stock is sold off.
Obviously this is not a decision that has been made lightly. In a world of constantly increasing prices (property, overheads, staffing etc.) the retail side of the business is no longer viable to continue in its present format with sales the way they have been over the past year or more. Sadly as you will all have seen, this is all too common at the moment in many different industries all over the country.
With massive regret, some amazing individuals, family and friends who have built Zero One alongside me over many years will now be moving on. Even those who have already moved on will always remain part of the Zero One team. To all my staff, past and most certainly present, I cannot thank them enough for the years of hard work, late nights, heart & soul, and loyalty they have given to myself and to Zero One. I will never forget them and the adventures we have had!
Fortunately, my friend, our expert technician Nathan will be continuing independently and starting his own airsoft repair shop called Wildcard Airsoft Tech, and his services will continue to be at Ground Zero games as usual. Obviously as a company we are not taking in any more new repairs ourselves, but I highly recommend that you contact Nathan directly to make arrangements moving forwards. Wildcard Airsoft Tech can be reached via WhatsApp Messenger on 07777 500252.
To be absolutely clear; Ground Zero, the GZ Site Shop, and the National Airsoft Festival are all separate and are UNAFFECTED. It is very much business as usual and ONLY the retail element is affected by any changes. I love improving our site at GZ and running the NAF, and these changes will allow me more time to be devoted to these things in the future, fear not!
Looking forwards, a new Zero One website will be launched early next year, where we will offer a limited but highly competitive range of popular products (specialising in Tokyo Marui), in an online-only format, going back to our roots where we began back in 1997!
For our 2025 NAF visitors, we will open up our new GZ Site Shop (which is permanent, next to player sign-in) for future events (this is about the same size as this years Zero One NAF shop). In addition, for 2025 and beyond, we are inviting all airsoft retailers from around the country to attend and have a stall at the NAF, bringing you more choice than ever.
Now in the final days of our closing down sale, which applies Online and at our Showroom, we are running 50% off pretty much everything that is normal price (excluding Tokyo Marui and a few other bits). And for the hundreds of our products that are already on clearance sale, and we are offering 15% off of any of these items as well. Once it’s gone, it really is gone! (Discount is automatic at checkout).
In conclusion, I would like to thank all the customers we have had over nearly three decades as an airsoft retailer. Some names and faces still come straight back to me when I think about the early days, which is a fantastic reflection on some of the great people that play this sport. It is quite amazing how time has flown. Please remember we are all human, and please have some compassion with my staff remembering they are loosing their jobs, if interacting with them between now and when we close our doors. Meanwhile, grab yourself a bargain online or pop down to our showroom, open Monday-Saturday. Watch this space to see what the future brings! x
With warm regards,
Dan, Director, Zero One.
