I am going to delve into the world of cosplaying (definitely going to be sharing pics with you) and need some tips. I have gathered a couple of websites based on reviews.

I have currently:
https://www.ccosplay.com/
https://www.ezcosplay.com/
https://www.miccostumes.com/

& https://honeycolor.com/color-contact-lenses for contacts

None of the links above are affiliate links, so feel free to look for products on here! If anybody has any advice on how I should cosplay or some ground rules, I would love some good tips. BTW, I plan to wear zentai suits (Spiderman, Deadpool, etc) and would like some good sites for that as well, especially a site with custom fitting.

Pricing Range:

< $200 unless custom... then <$600

The reason why my pricing range is quite large (what I think is large) is mainly because I will be also working very hard towards getting these cosplay costumes. I am also going to be signing up with some affiliate programs to help me get out there more. If anybody knows any affiliate programs, I would greatly appreciate it!
 
I'm confused, are you buying, selling or making cosplays?

I am a buyer but would love to make cosplays (if you have any advice on that). I would probably only make for myself, but maybe in the future I would sell

Well, idk actual places you can buy from, but honestly, making them yourself is probably cheaper and you also learn the skills around that. Find any local cosplaying groups nearby to you and join them, go to charity shops or fabric shops and look for fabric scraps and cheap fabric, along with hats you can customise and whatever else you want.

Craft shops as well are a damn good place for scraps and what not. Also would be best to plan out what your costume is, and break it down to each part. Find fabric samples for what you want, and then look for bigger amounts of it. Also, ask cosplay groups for advice and maybe even help with it.
