I really can't comment because I have not received my purchase. The size was wrong even tho' I gave the requested measurements and I had to return the first coat for another size which has not arrived. I can say that everyone I have talked to has been very pleasant and willing to try to help. I would however like my purchase.

Rude staff. Did not want to help me answer basic questions about cancelling an order. Seemed to lazy to do the legwork involved. Told me I couldn't cancel an order. I was put on hold for 15 minutes and I hung up. The order was cancelled. You guys need to work on your people skills!

Quick, responsive service. Many items in catalog, nice selection. Clothing somewhat lower quality than expected or preferred (synthetic fibers, rough wool, etc.). In general, clothing seems appropriate for costumes, but not for regular wear.

I couldn't have been more pleased. The shipping was incredible. If I paid for expedited shipping would it have meant that the product materializes in my lap when I order it. Regular shipping was pretty much overnight.

It's pretty expensive if you take the Swedish import/export taxes that add 50% to the price.

Loved the shirts alot but two are too dressey and need to send them back. I would like more of a casual shirt for women with above the elbow sleeve. When we rendezvous we need more casual shirts. You have one for men that was not avalible until Novemberand I will order that when it is time.

I am pleased with the products I ordered and they arrived in a timely manner. I only wish you provided a matching pair of wool pants to go with the victorian formal tailcoat jacket. I will have to find another resource to get the pants. Once you have the vests I want in I will probably order them through you.
