What are my payment options?
Character Store only accepts orders that are processed online using a credit card. We currently accept Visa, MasterCard, and Discover Card and we may accept other cards in the near future. Please be assured that our systems are secure and customer information is kept private by Character Store. For more information about credit card security, please read about our Safe & Secure Shopping. We are unable to accept payments by cash, check, or money order.

Is my credit card safe?
Absolutely! In fact, it's safer to use your credit card over the Internet than in a restaurant or department store. Character Store servers use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), an encryption technology that works with Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer and AOL's browser so that only Character Store computers read a buyer's personal information.

If you still aren't convinced, take comfort in this--in the unlikely event that someone makes unauthorized charges on a credit card because of an Costume City transaction, the cardholder will simply not be held liable. If you would like more information about our credit card security policy, please read about our Safe & Secure Shopping.

When are credit cards charged for an order?
When you place an order, your card is charged upon acceptance.

Does Character Store charge sales tax?
State laws require companies to collect sales tax from residents shipping merchandise to states where the company has established offices. Character Store main office and warehouse operations are in Washington; we are, therefore, required to collect sales tax on orders shipped to locations in the state of Washington.
