Deadlines:
-
Currently we are unable to offer guaranteed deadlines. We will listen to request dates but we will not guarantee you will have the suit/product by that requested date due to responsibilities and appointments outside of the shop.
Warranty:
-
Upon purchase of a suit or item everything will come with a free repair warranty for any mistakes in seams or size we made during construction of your order. We encourage customers to reach out as soon as the issue is found and arrange for the suit to come back to be fixed, or if customer has someone in mind or are able to do so themselves it can be discussed (especially for customers outside the u.s.) on getting approval for themself or said person fixing the suit without resulting in terminating the warranty. Shipping to come back due to our mistake will be covered by Monster Cat Creations. Please schedule for the suit to come back to the shop.
-
If you end up having major damage during the duration of owning the suit/product that will require new fur or major repairs, there will unfortunately be a fee for repairs to be made.
-
If you wish to ship and have repairs or changes made to the suit, please contact Monster Cat Creations owner to discuss repairs/changes/fees and to schedule a time the costume/item can be in the shop, customer will be responsible for shipping fees to and from Monster Cat Creations.
-
Any customers outside of the U.S. please contact to discuss shipping for any repairs if you wish us to repair the suit for you or discuss a third party fixing the item/costume.

-
Your repair warranty will be terminated if there are any parts of the suit repaired outside Monster Cat Creations (I.E. eyes, nose, ears, ect) without prior contact for permission.
-
If you sell your suit and the new owner of the suit would like any repairs or changes made to the suit, we offer discounted repairs/changes/replacements for the new owner.
Shipping:
Due to issues in the past we will only ship to the address that matches with the address on your form of payment. (i.e. your paypal, online order, ect) Please be sure your address is correct and will match. If you need us to ship your product to a different address we will now require signing a contract to approve us to ship to a different address.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
-
Once your suit/product is with the shipping company of choice Monster Cat Creations is no longer liable for any damages to said suit/product. We can not be held responsible for damage in route to you as we have no affiliation with the chosen shipping company outside of shipping with their services.
-
Should your item arrive damaged please take photos immediately and take the box with item that is damaged to your nearest shipping company location so they can document the damage. (we ship using mainly using USPS unless requested by you the customer to use another mailing system, using a different mailing system may require additional cost as we do not have fedex or ups near our current location).
-
We are not responsible if the shipping company misplaces your product. We provide tracking with your item to allow both parties to watch where the item goes and when it will arrive and be able to try and find the item if it goes missing between one city and another. If your item goes missing during shipment please follow the shipping companies guide for putting in a claim on said item.
-
Monster Cat Creations can not be held responsible if your package is not received (i.e. shipping company shows delivered but item can not be found on property) as we have no control over the shipping company or your property/location item is shipped. Please contact the shipping company to inquire on where packages may have been left on property and to get assistance.
-
Upon arrival you will have up to 5 days to report any construction errors to monster cat creations (i.e. seam issues, too tight/loose, too short/tall ect) that will fall under the warranty of free repair. Reporting mistakes we made after 5 days may not be considered for our free repair due to suit has been in your possession long enough to find issues with construction of the costume
-
This warranty will be valid for as long as you own the suit.
Minors (under 18 years old):
-
Due to previous issues we will no longer be working with Minors under the age of 18 and will not work with a parent for someone under the age of 18 without references from other suit makers you have worked with and have positive feedback from those makers that your parent followed their t.o.s., if we permit a parent to commission they will be required to sign a waiver and our t.o.s. There will be no exceptions. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Working on your suit/Disclosures:

Customers will be provided work in progress (WIP) images of their order via personal messages and update channels during the building process to verify things are done correctly. PLEASE REVIEW THE IMAGES FOR ACCURACY! If an issue is seen within the work in progress photo the customer is responsible to relay this the sender of the images upon receiving them. (Images will be sent by MCC or the Assistant in shop) If you the owner give Monster cat creations confirmation of accuracy from images provided are correct and they move forward with completing your order, if you fail to alert to any errors that lead to any changes after giving the confirmation of accuracy that result in changing the product there will be an additional charge due, claims of not noticing an error in the progress photos will not be accepted.
