Price is calculated per dollar. Quantity entered reflects the total fee. The Service Fee covers the additional handling, packaging, and administration required to prepare and manage a costume for postage. This includes packing, dispatch, coordination, tracking, and managing the return process to ensure everything runs smoothly. When a costume is sent out of the showroom, it requires additional time and handling beyond a standard in-store hire. This fee reflects the extra workload involved in delivering a reliable hire-by-post service. How the Fee is Calculated Service Fees: 25% of the costume hire price for one-way postage 50% of the costume hire price for return postage These percentages form the base rate only During peak periods, high-demand seasons, or where timing, logistics, or availability require it, these fees may be higher. This allows us to manage demand, protect availability, and maintain service standards across all bookings.
