Our Story

It all started with two gamers and a vision to break down the barriers between gamers and retailers.

We’re gamers ourselves. We knew how hard it was to find high quality, enthusiast-grade gaming hardware, coupled with expert knowledge and genuinely kick-ass customer service, without breaking the bank.

We’re not kidding ourselves, we know Jeff Bezos is taking over the world and that there’s a tonne of big online retailers out there selling gaming gear. But let's face it, most of them also sell TVs, toasters and washing machines too… They don't live and breathe enthusiast gaming hardware. Their service, support and technical knowledge is *cough* questionable. They're box shifters, not gamers like you and me. It’s as simple as that.

We decided enough was enough. In 2017, our founders Mark and Mike put their combined 30+ years of experience within the gaming scene and the retail industry to work to change the status quo; Esports Gear was born.

We want to work in partnership with the UK gaming scene, help support grassroots talent and help you thrive and build a career from gaming.

Building something bigger than ourselves is a slow process. It's not easy, but we've got your back because you've got ours. We’re building an enthusiast hardware community from scratch and attracting top gaming brands from around the world to come to the UK and partner with us and bring you fresh new gear.

We can’t thank you enough for supporting our journey — it’s been a hell of a ride so far, and we’re just getting started.
