The goggles that I ordered arrived, but was missing a very important piece. The gasket that holds the lens to the goggle base was missing, when I put the goggles on the lens fell out. I didn't bother to call customer service, I thought that I could find a replacement for it. One good thing, the items that I ordered did arrive within a few days of the purchase.

you have a great selection of hard to find items at a decent price. Shipment notifications were a little vague, one item came later than the others and this could have been represented better, either on the invoice or by email.

I ordered the vest for my husband's birthday. We looked over the different vests available on the website and he was able to settle on that one easily through the pictures and description as being the most appealing. The package arrived right on his birthday -- when the e-mail informed us it would arrive -- and I could tell from his reaction that he was very pleased. It is a handsome piece of clothing and obviously well-made. It looks good on him and suits his somewhat 19th century taste in clothes. I anticipate doing business with you in the future.

The western tie I ordered arrived. However, at almost $20, I expected a little bit more quality than what I got which was similar in quality (material, workmanship) to my sons' school orchestra bow tie uniform available for $3. The $4 western ties being sold on Ebay might be worth the risk after seeing what I got.

The item I purchased doesn't fit; however, it makes no sense for me to return it because the cost of return S&H doesn't make it worth it. I have tried to sell the item on my own, but interestingly the monocle does not fit ANY of the adults I've let try it on. I believe that the monocle you are selling cannot possibly fit the vast majority of adult men. It is simply way too big. The other products in your collection seem very nice, though, which is why I gave you a high rating. Feel free to contact me at 757-748-0671. Thanks. Bruce Familant

The rep that I spoke with was very helpful and made sure to verify that the proper item was shipped to me. Upon receiving the item, it was exactly what i ordered and the quality was roughly what I expected for the price. The only issue I had was that the hat was a bit too tight. I was able to wear it and use it as needed but it was a bit tighter than what I was hoping for. This does not reflect any on your customer service (which was excellent) but a size chart might have helped in making sure the item fit properly.

I have ordered from the website two times, and I was happy with my purchase each time, both with the quality and fit of the item (the size chart was accurate) and with the shipping time. Also, I recently asked to pick up an item at Bats Day, that apparently wasn't being sold, and one was waiting for me with my name on it! Now that is service. I already told everyone I know about it (anyone interested in fashion, that is).
