We never  take down / partial payments.
We will never  have a lay-away program .
If you do not include size/style (or hand needed for a basket hilt), your order may take longer to ship,  because we can't make your order without this information that is needed for your armor order.
We do not pad or strap helmets or any other armor.  if you do not know how to do this, ask someone who lives near you to give you a hand.  That way you can learn how to for yourself from someone that knows the local marshaling standards.
