HI all,
So i'm trying to decide where to buy my first jedi tunic from and it seems i'm have difficulty deciding. Bit of a note, I consider this purchase to be a bit of an investment into the future, so if I could buy a good piece now and expand it where needed in the future that would be great. I also need the costume for an upcoming expo (in a months time) and can't decide if I should buy cheaper, but ultimately end up replacing the tunic in the future, or whether pay more and and likely have a better investment for the future. Here are the options i'm considering:
The first is a site named costume base, this is my cheapest option, I have heard some pretty mixed stuff. I could get this in time for the expo, but would almost definitely replace it within a year for a better one anyway.
The second site is my frontrunner but is most expensive. It is unlikely that I would receive it in time as it is custom made and needs to be delivered to me in Australia. I hear pretty good reviews, so the main issue is that I would probably not receive it in time. The site name is correlian imports.
The Last site is one from easy, because it is a small operation I don't really have any reviews to go off. It's a decent price, but to me it just looks a little off, especially in a materials sense. Therefore I am not sure if I would end up replacing it. I would also receive this in time, if I order really soon. (Unfortunately cannot post a link)
So pretty much i'm asking do I order cheaper and have something in time for when I need (but end up replacing later)? Or do I buy the more expensive which I think will last much longer (but with a much higher risk of not having it in time).
