Prices listed on the order page are for a common description of an item. However we can not list all possible types of garment.

For items that are: extra heavy, long, extra-large or extra-small, bulky, fancy buttons, special fabric, leather or fur, there may be an extra charge since it requires extra attention or is different than the standard item of that kind.
