5. Deliveries
. Delivery services offered are Next Working Day Delivery and Saturday Delivery. Next Working Day Delivery is offered for orders placed which are confirmed as received with an authorised credit or debit card before 12.00 noon from Monday to Thursday (excluding Bank Holiday Mondays) of each week.
If the order has been placed and authorised before 12.00 noon on a weekday the order will be processed on the same day and sent out for delivery on the following day.
We do not process orders over the weekend and only process orders on Fridays for customers who have selected Saturday delivery. Any Next Working Day orders received after 12.00 noon on a Thursday will only be processed on Monday (except when the Monday is a Bank Holiday) and will be delivered on Tuesday. This also applies to orders placed on the website on Friday, Saturday and Sunday of a normal working week. We will do our best to process all these orders on a Monday for delivery on Tuesday.
Upon dispatch of the order the risk of loss, damage or breakage is passed to the customer. Ownership of the goods passes to the customer when payment has been made for the full amount to Wigan Athletic.
We endeavour to deliver goods on the day specified, but do not guarantee that delivery will take place on that day. We do not accept liability for delayed orders.
For delivery addresses which rely on ferry services to deliver goods, there is the prospect that services will be delayed or cancelled.
There are certain locations in the UK where we are unlikely or unable to deliver Next Working Day. Please click here for a list of postcodes for these locations. Customers who order customised goods such as replica shirts which require printing may need to allow for an extra day to process their order as the printing of shirts adds extra time to the order processing.
a. Delivery Restrictions
There may be delivery restrictions on some of our products, which we have dispatched directly from suppliers. These products are mainly heavy and bulky goods such as fitness equipment and table games, which our suppliers will not send to certain destinations. Where these restrictions apply it will be stated clearly in the product text. There may be a surcharge for delivery of goods to certain locations due to their remoteness or difficulty in accessing. To find out whether we deliver to your chosen delivery address and how much the product will cost to deliver to this location call our Shop Team on 0844 99 11 932 and they will be happy to quote you a price for delivery.
b. Bank Holidays
We do not process orders when the Bank Holiday falls on a Friday, such as Good Friday, or when Christmas Day or Boxing Day land on a Friday. Orders placed on the Thursday and Friday of such weeks will not be picked until the next working day. If the next working day is Monday then orders placed between 12.01pm on Thursday through until 12.00 noon on Monday would be processed as far as possible on the Monday and delivered on the Tuesday. If a high number of orders were received over the weekend it is possible that some would not be processed until Tuesday. These orders would be delivered on Wednesday. In the event of the Monday being a Bank Holiday orders received after 12.00 noon on the previous Thursday will be processed on the following Tuesday and will be delivered on the Wednesday. There will be no Saturday deliveries. Delivery is defined as having taken place when the goods are delivered to the selected delivery address.
6. Returns

Unwanted goods returned to us later than 7 days after receiving them will be credited by issuing gift vouchers to the purchase value of the goods. Returned goods must be in an unused/unworn condition, with the original packaging and with the delivery docket as proof of purchase. The docket has a section titled "Reason for Return" which must be filled in when returning stock.

When returning goods which consist of a number of separate components all the components which were present when the goods were received must be returned to us.
If you wish to return goods purchased from the online store for replacement or refund they must be sent via a service which is trackable and traceable. Ensuring that the returned goods reach us without damage is the responsibility of the customer.

Note that postage for returning goods to us will not be refunded if the goods are unwanted or because the wrong size has been ordered. If we are responsible for an error in sending out goods other than those ordered we will be happy to refund the cost of returning the goods to us provided it does not exceed the delivery fee which we charged to you for original delivery. Goods which are returned to us as damaged or faulty will be examined by our Shop staff and a decision will be made by them whether a fault or damage to the goods does exist. If they decide that there is a fault or damage you will be offered the opportunity to exchange the goods or receive a refund. Any returned goods deemed to be faulty will be eligible for a refund of your return postage costs provided that they do not exceed the cost incurred in sending the goods to you.

7. Orders
. Acceptance of your order is confirmed when your method of payment has been cleared by our fraud checkers and not on receipt of credit or debit card details. We reserve the right to refuse any orders for any reason. A confirmation email as a means of order acceptance will be sent to you once your order has been accepted. Our customer services team will deal with any queries or anomalies with your order. Payment is taken from your account when the order is confirmed as picked ready for dispatch except in the case of pre-order offers for new replica kit launches (see below).
8. Pre Orders
. When new replica kits are due for launch, Wigan Athletic may offer customers the opportunity to place an order several weeks before the launch date and receive the kit of choice at their chosen delivery address on the day of the kit launch. In such circumstances the funds for the order would be taken from the customer's account as soon as the method of payment which is offered has passed our fraud checking system. We take the funds at this stage because the authorisation from the banks to take funds only last for a few days. Please note that if you place an order which includes stock on a pre-order offer alongside stock which is not on a pre-order offer you will receive all the items together on the day of the pre-ordered kit launch.
9. Replica Shirts and Kit
. If you place an order which requires personalisation such as shirt printing you may need to allow for an extra day or so beyond the Next Working Day Delivery service as the printing of the shirt adds more time to the order processing.
If we have non-availability of your required personalisation numbers or letters we may delay or even cancel your order. Once your order has been authorised we cannot refund or replace your purchase.
Orders for personalised garments, including replica shirts, cannot be cancelled once they have been personalised and will not be accepted as returned goods by Wigan Athletic unless they are faulty.

Why recycle? Unwanted electrical equipment is the UKs fastest growing type of waste.
Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle, electrical equipment will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and also human health.
We are pleased to offer our customers the chance to recycle their old electrical items.
Please return your old electrical items to the Club Shop and we will recycle for free. The address is Wigan Athletic Club Shop, 5 Ashton Gallery, The Galleries, Wigan, WN1 1AS
To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, it is now marked with a crossed-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with the crossed out wheeled bin symbol) in your bin.
What is WEEE? The Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires countries to maximise separate collection and environmentally friendly processing of these items. In theUK, distributors (including retailers) must provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge. Those establishing their own take-back scheme must as a minimum offer all customers buying new electrical equipment free take back of their old electricals on a like-for-like basis.
