Mascot Costs - Answer
Do mascot suppliers offer volume pricing for schools?
Key points
- Multi-costume orders are routine: performer rosters, backup costumes, event programs.
- Volume pricing exists but terms vary - it is a quote conversation.
- Ordering identical designs together usually helps pricing (shared patterns and setup).
- State quantity, sizes, and event dates in the initial quote request.
Schools order multiple mascot costumes for predictable reasons: a rotating performer roster that needs two of the same character, a backup costume for a busy football and basketball season, or a district ordering for several schools at once. Suppliers are set up for this, and larger orders can qualify for volume pricing - the terms just are not published as fixed discounts because they depend on the designs and quantities involved.
How to request volume terms
- State the quantity and whether the costumes are identical designs.
- List the sizes needed for each performer (sizing follows height).
- Give your event date or delivery window.
- Ask directly: 'Do you offer volume pricing at this quantity, and what does it include?'
Also ask about consistency across the set: when performers alternate in the same character, the crowd should not notice the swap. A supplier producing the costumes together can match details in a way that afterthought orders cannot.

Practical considerations
- Bundle identical designs into one order when possible.
- Confirm sizing per performer before the order - a roster is not one-size-fits-all.
- Ask about staggered delivery if you only need part of the set by a specific event.
- Get the volume terms in writing as part of the quote.
