My kids and I love love, love love these costumes. When I ordered them, shipping said it would be five to eight business days. I definitely did not expect them to show up 25 days later. I ordered them on October 3rd and slowly became more and more stressed and eventually expected them not to be here in time for Halloween. They ended up showing up on October 29th. I'm extremely happy that they showed up and we absolutely love the costumes so much. But for anybody ordering, please note that you would most likely need to order anything for an event, at least I would say a month or longer in advance before the event. I really feel like that information should be posted on their website. But again, we absolutely love these costumes
