​
Q. Why When I place an order often I find I have to wait a short period why can I not have it sent out immediately?
A. Because at LarpGems.com very little we sell is imported. Most of the items are made to measure and hand made in the U.K. and as we have so many options on our website it would take an enormous warehouse if we were to keep a stock of each item at all times. So most of the time we will have an item in stock but some times we have to have it sent direct from the warehouses, and occasionally we have to make the item especially for you, but to offer you the best possible service we will always answer any questions you have about your order clearly and quickly, and to our utmost to keep to our promise that no order will ever take longer that 28 days to be dispatched.
​
Q. What then is the difference between Custom Costume Service and the other items on the website?
A. The difference between them is, the Custom Costume Service will require a full set of body measurement's just so we can get the item to fit just right. It also allows you much more artistic control over your costume. The costume in the other sections is all designed to only require a minimal amount of body measurements.

Abbreviation GRP (used when talking about weapons)
Explanation Glass Reinforced Plastic - recently this substance has been found to be an ideal core for weapons, it is more durable than carbon fiber rods and less prone to breakage and shattering, but is slightly more heavy, still many people still prefer the original carbon fiber cores due to them being lighter and more easy to wield so we supply both but mark all weapons with what there core they contain.
