Is Boards and Swords legit?
Boards and Swords Hobbies is a hobby gaming centre in Derby, UK, trading from premises on Stores Road (next to Yesss Electrical) since it opened in January 2018. It carries a "Great" rating of 4.1 out of 5 on Trustpilot, checked 23 Sep 2026, with reviewers praising delivery speed, customer service and the in-store atmosphere — but the sample is small, just five reviews in total and only one in the past year, so treat the rating as a positive early signal rather than a large, settled one.

What this shop stocks was read from its own website on the dates shown — each date links the page it was read from. A dash means we could not establish it either way, not that the shop does not sell it. Ranges change; check with the shop before ordering. We identified boardsandswords.co.uk as this shop's site because: Site's own About Us page states 'You can find us on Stores Road in Derby' next to Yesss Electrical — matches given location. Shop name matches exactly ('Boards and Swords Hobbies'). Site trades live: displays GBP prices, sale discounts, stock states (in stock/sold out), a working cart with subtotal/checkout, and shipping calculator.
