Always really happy that an actual person answers the phone right away, not trapped in voicemail on hold. The reps are always very knowledgeable both with products, shipping and find my account in a matter of moments. I've ordered from this site for my past 4 films and recently for a styling job, always a great experience. I find the quality of the clothing to be good to great, and the customer service is just excellent. Great order confirmation emails, never have issues, just a pleasant experience overall. The website layout is clear and attractive, size charts are right there. Thanks!

I have a very... old-fashioned sense of taste. This site has THE best clothes; stylish yet sturdy, no flimsy costume-y clothing here!

Personally, I think they have a time machine and go back and get the real deal.;)

Stay classy, mates.

I found the cross-draw holster to be as described and of excellent quality. I fits both my revolvers and looks good on my one piece gun belt/holster. Now I can carry both revolvers.

The customer service was great
July 15, 2016

The customer service was great.
The first product was good quality but didn't fit me so they exchanged it.
The replacement did not fit my gun and the quality was mediocre so I sent it back.

Lowell was understanding and processed a credit immediately.

It is very refreshing to deal with this company when purchasing items. They are friendly, efficient, and if you have to call customer service - YOU GET A PERSON. That is awesome. The products are well made and of good quality. I highly recommend them.

Every time I order from Historical Emporium I am totally satisfied. I produce Melodramas and Murder Mysteries (Old West Melodrama Productions) in an 1900's train depot (Puffabelly's restaurant). We have been partnered in this for some 13 years. Love the costumes. Very well made my actors are very pleased.

I only had one issue and that was because I did not read product description before I ordered so I had to send the item back. Not your fault but mine.

Customer service is great
July 14, 2016

Customer service is great. Products for the most part are as well. I have bought 4 pair of the preacher boots so far and the last pair I bought is the first one's that did not pinch on the left boot requiring me to tape a cotton ball to my foot to "train" the leather. After that they were fine. Oak Tree Farms who make that boot must have up graded quality control; good for them!

The order was placed easily
July 14, 2016

The order was placed easily. I had to make a return so I did it as a "return" and ordered the correct size. The refund was prompt. The only negative thing I could say is I wish they had return shipping. Overall, that increased the cost significantly

I ordered a Large based on the size chart but a Medium would have fit better.

Marie in Customer Service, responded right away to a size question I had before placing my order. When trying to deal with another company, I could find absolutely no way to contact a real person and get help beyond FAQ's, so a point in your favor. Also, I needed my order quickly and was concerned about the indefinite time frame indicated on the website. Once again, Marie responded to my email immediately, giving me a more specific time frame that allowed me to place my order with confidence. The blouse arrived on time and was the perfect addition to my Clara Barton costume. Hooray! My only criticism is what I consider an excessive fee for expedited delivery. $36 for an order of $81 still seems unreasonable to me.
