About Games from Pevans
Who's Pevans?
Pevans is me! All right, I am actually Paul Evans and I use Pevans as a pen name to distinguish myself from the all other Pauls (not to mention the other Paul Evanses) in the games world.
I have been involved in the games industry since the 1980s and first sold games by mail order in the early 1990s. I was co-founder of Games Games Games magazine (RIP), which I edited for twelve years. I review and write about board games (in my own 'zine, To Win Just Once, and occasionally in other publications). I publish En Garde!, the swashbuckling game, and run an online game of this (Les Petites Bêtes Soyeuses) which has been going since 1986.
You can find out more about me on my website.
What is Games from Pevans?
Games from Pevans is my mail order service, selling board and card games to games enthusiasts, which I set up in 2004. It is based in the UK (on the outskirts of Greater London). I stock games that I like, many from small, specialist publishers in the UK, across Europe and from around the world. They are not toys and are intended for adults, though most are suitable for older children.
Formally, Games from Pevans is a trading name of Margam Evans Limited: a company registered in England and Wales, number 05152842, Reg. office 180 Aylsham Drive, UXBRIDGE UB10 8UF.
Although most of my customers are in the UK, I am happy to sell to people anywhere in the world – though note that you are liable for any import duties or tax payable to your own authorities. Most of the time it will probably be easier (and cheaper!) for you to buy from a local supplier or shop.
