Some newbie advise please

[captainhappy]

Greetings all, I have been working on a Vader costume for years now and I'm surprised at how it never seems to be complete I thought I had finished it 2 years ago but have recently become displeased with some of the key parts. I am ready to give it an overhall and I've found some neat pieces on ebay but I am unfamiliar with the sellers. Could some of you kind costuming enthusiast give me some insight as to what it is like dealing with these sellers and maybe some personal stories? I have been interested in the following: TK510, Portumac, sithplanet. Thanks in advance

I've only dealt with Randy from Sithplanet from your list. He's a good guy - always replies to your e-mails and is very friendly. I would have no troubles recommending him and his gear.

I have delt with Manuel (Portumac) and randy (Sith Planet) both are great guys and can realy be helpful,Randy in particular always delivers to me in the u.k.within 5 working days and can lay his hand on anything that you need.

i dealt with sithplanet (randy)
if you are getting any fiberglass parts, ask him to wrap it up good
before putting the plastic packing materials, 2 items i got , had the patterns and marks of the plastic over it, and i can't seem to remove it.

Thanks all for the input. I shall put it to good use. I really like the shoulder armor that I've been seeing lately from Portumac and sithplanet.

I have dealt with TK510. Excellent gloves and very fast service.
