Zentai suit washing issues

The ten Zentai suits that I bought recently on eBay were a bit of a problem to get through customs which turned out to be rather expensive. There was a lot of additional colour that came off one of the suits when I washed it. I haven't tried washing the others for this reason.

Expensive Zentai suits

A while ago, I ordered ten Zentai suits (limited by the eBay seller to ten). This ended up costing me about 5000ZAR (South African Rand). When the package finally got here, I had to go to Capemail to collect it, but I was told to bring proof of payment papers. I got there with my papers and was told that it is still being assessed at the airport and I would have to get a freight clearing agent to fetch the package for me. After getting hold of a freight clearing agent, I ended up paying a bit more than 4000ZAR (South African Rand). Now I am waiting for notification to collect the package at Capemail.

Several new Zentai suits

A few days ago, I did a long time major decision to order several Zentai suits. These included a few suits that look like some superheroes and several similar to Power Rangers. There is always a demand for P parties, some people did mention Power Rangers. I ordered several costumes in different sizes.

The supplier that I picked in the end based on client feedback on eBay was Lily_tw which still had the online shop running, unlike many that only stay a short time and can hardly communicate. So far I must say, that my experience with this supplier has been a bit better than the previous two and the communication was a lot better and quicker.

Magic Events in the Garden Route doesn't pay invoices or really late

During the Easter weekend, the Magic Events company in the Garden Route approached me about renting bunny suits. I was assured payment by bank transfer either the same evening or the next day. Bank details were sent via the person who collected and returned the suits and by invoice. An invoice was sent to multiple email addresses listed on their website and up to today (4 April 2008) there has been no response at all. This not paying issue and trying to ignore that is bad for business and people need to know that they will have to be careful with a company that most likely just wants money and refuses to pay and tries to hide that fact.
