Ordering Information
Rush
Orders/Turn around time on orders
We understand that you might want your costume for a specific party,
gathering, or event, and that sometimes you want your costume sooner
rather than later. If you would like your item to be shipped by a certain date,
please write to us at info@CareyCostuming.com
and make sure that we are in a position to get it to you on time. Sometimes we
can get it to you immediately, sometimes there will be a delay while we make it,
and sometimes we can do it, but will have to charge you rush charges and/or rush
shipping charges to get it to you on time. Rush charges are fairly rare, but may
happen when there is a queue during certain seasons.
So, please give us the opportunity to inform you of the
situation- we hate to disappoint anyone, and our combined communication
drastically lessens the chances of that happening. In general, you will get your
order long before our 4 week maximum, but there are times when it gets
very busy around here, so it might take that long. Once again, email us if you
have questions. We are happy to work with deadlines!
Payment methods:
All purchases must be paid for in full at the time of
ordering. Credit cards will not be charged until the order has shipped. Clothing
orders may not be cancelled once work has begun on them. (Belts, bags and other
accessories may be cancelled up until time of shipment.)
Mail- in orders-when
sending payment by mail, print out the shopping cart page and enclose it with
the payment method of your choice. Bank

Purchasing Polices
We at Carey Costuming have done
our best to make available all of the information you could possibly want about
our clothing. Be sure to see our garment construction page for details on the
clothing, and our SCA and LARPing pages for information specifically about those
special construction processes.
Please understand that there may be variations in color
between cloaks made at different times, due to the supply of wool and cotton
available. If you want matching
pieces of clothing, order them at the same time, and be sure to let us know that
this is your intention.
Each item of clothing that you buy
from Carey Costuming will be custom made, and created to your specifications. If
you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of needing to return an item,
please note the following guidelines:
-
The receipt or duplicate is required on all returned garments.
-
Returns are not accepted after 30 days, unless agreed
to by one of our staff members.
If you decide to return your purchase, call (781)
272-3440 for a return authorization code. Returns sent without an
authorization code will not be accepted.
Shipping and Tracking Information
All items will be shipped US Mail . Carey Costuming will email the customer with
the tracking number to their package when their order is shipped, along with the US Mail URL where that customer may track their packages
progress. For special shipping arrangements (such as rush orders and overnight

All orders will be processed immediately, but please

We
would like to assure you that any information that you entrust to Carey
Costuming while purchasing a product (name, address, phone number, email, or
credit card information) will be kept private. We DO NOT sell customer
information. We think that this practice is a horrible invasion of privacy. Your
personal information will only be shared with the financial institutions
necessary to complete your purchase: the banks or merchant services involved. Carey
Costuming will only keep your shipping information on file: you will be required
to re-enter your credit card number and expiration date each time you make a
purchase. This ensures you that in the event of an attack on our website (by
hackers), your credit card information is still safely in your
hands.

Customer Feedback:
Carey Costuming feels confident that you will be pleased
with your purchase, and will wear it for many happy years to come. Your
satisfaction with your purchase is very important to us, and thus we encourage
feedback (both before and after your purchase) in the form of e-mail. If you
