ORDERING INFORMATION

If you wish to commission something from me or ask for a quote, here are a few things to remember:

PAYMENT MUST BE MADE HALF IN ADVANCE. - The first half before the item or costume is made and the rest once the item or costume is finished, approved, and ready to ship. ( If you sound trustworthy, I can arrange to have you send me the money via an installment plan, but this is usually something I'll only arrange for repeat customers.)

I WILL NEED AT LEAST 4 WEEKS TO FINISH THE ITEM OR COSTUME. Certain smaller, simpler projects I might be able to finish sooner. However, larger, more complex projects, such as suits of armor, may take up to 3-6 months to complete. It is a good idea to arrange it so you receive the item/costume at a week or two before you actually need it, so if any issues arise, there will be time to address them.

IF YOU NEED TO HAVE THE ITEM/COSTUME BY A CERTAIN DATE, LET ME KNOW. A number date, please. "I need it by next "Bish-o-con" is not nearly as helpful as "I need it by January 4th 2006."

I ACCEPT PAYPAL, MONEY ORDERS, (and cash sent at your own risk.) Work will not begin on an item/costume until the first payment has been received. (So it is in your best interest to send in your payment as soon as possible. I cannot guarantee that the work will be finished on time if you wait 2 weeks or more before sending in the money.)

Additional information on costume ordering can be found in my online tutorial: Advice to People Ordering Costumes. I try to please my customers as best I can, and my Ebay Feedback Rating will (hopefully, as of this date still) bear witness to that fact.

Shipping information for props and costumes can be found on (duh) my Prop Closet Shipping Information Page.
