Show Time Costumes

My mom lives in Vestal NY I come up once a year to celebrate my Children Birthday. Of course I always go to Showtime Costumes, they have over 300 Mascots for adults to rent for such an event. The Mascots are great-clean-and smell great. the service is ultra professional and the folks that run the store are wonderful. My Mom is 82 and demands me to take here to see the folks there. Vicky or nicky are the best. I rate the store better than most costumes stores I've been in and there must be 20k costumes or more. They have been around a long long time and are an Icon to their Community. HoRay for Showtime!!!!!! more

I purchased a ""disco"" shirt from ShowTime Costumes for my birthday party that night. While getting ready for my party, my friend pointed out that there was a burn hole in the front of the shirt, leaving me with nothing to wear for my own party. Being that I bought the shirt on a Saturday near closing time, I called them Wed (the next day the store was open), the employee told me to bring the shirt in. After bringing the shirt in I was told I'd receive a full refund due to the burn not being fresh (no one in my house smokes btw), but I had forgot my credit card for the refund. I was told to come back at my convenience, which took some time due to the limited hours the store is open & my hours at a new job. When I returned with the shirt & card expecting the full refund, which was stated to me several times by the employee, I was told I'd be receiving a store credit instead. I stated thats not what she had previously told me, she told me to take it up w/ the owner via email. (Which I have done twice now with no response whatsoever!!). The employee started arguing with me, personally attacking me by insulting me, being rude & even slamming the door in my face. THIS IS THE WORST CASE OF CUSTOMER SERVICE I HAVE EVER SEEN!! If the employee had not been rude I may have taken the credit, now its not about the money, its about the principle of the matter!! more

6 MONTHS AGO SHOWTIME COSTUMES WAS RECCOMENDED TO ME BY SEVERAL PEOPLE FOR MAKING A VERY SPECIAL WEDDING FOR ME. I WANTED A SCARLETT O'HARA WEDDING. I HAD 9 BRIDESMAIDS. \r I DISCRIBED TO HER WHAT I WANTED FOR ME AND MY GIRLS, SHE PUT MY DESIGN TO PAPER AND WALA, THERE IT WAS. SINCE I WAITED SO LONG DUE TO NOT FINDING ANYONE TO MAKE THEM AS I WANTED MY COLORS NOT WHAT I HAD TO ACCEPT. THE SEAMSTRESS THERE MADE ALL OUR DRESSES WITHIN 8 MONTHS.. I CANOT BEGIN TO TELL YOU HOW PLEASED AND HAPPY I WAS AS WELL AS ALL THE GIRLS...YEAH! FOR SHOWTIME....SHE IS A MASTER AND OLD WORLD SEAMSTRESS. I RECCOMENT SHOWTIME TO ALL WHO REQUIRE SPECIAL TENDER CARE.... Pros: THESE ARE PROFESSIONAL'S ALAL THE WAY! Cons: NO CONS---THE BEST more

I used this company to make me costumes for the wedding. Beyond the fact that she was rude to many of us, changed prices on a whim, and told me that my own bridesmaids were lying to me, the costumes were not completed on time, and none of them fit properly, despite the fact that she took the measurements herself. I had to send people to pick up the remains of the costumes the day of the wedding, and even then they weren't right. When I tried to call to speak to the owner about this, I found that the hours had suddenly changed, and she was only open when I was at work. I would not go back to her if the owners paid me to. Pros: variety Cons: expensive, unreliable, incomplete costumes more
