I actually bought 2 costumes from this eBay store. They're really nice quality, and showed up under a month's time. Even though the auctions specify size "M" or whatever, he (or she, I'm not sure. ^_^;;) will make them to your specifications. You just have to send the sizes that he requests of you. And yes, it's out of Hong Kong, but with the shipping, the price is just under $100. Sooo...
I recommend them!

Edgeworth's hair is NOT LIGHT GREY! It's light brown and dark silver mixed together! Sorry, I don't mean to seem rude or anything, but I see Edgeworth cosplayers all the time with GREY wigs and it does nothing but make him look like an old man! I recommend buying a brownish wig, styling it, and spraying it with silver hair-colour spray, though, since I've never personally cosplayed Edgeworth, so I don't actually know how well that would work. Just, please, I beg of you, DON'T JUST USE A LIGHT GREY WIIIIG!!!!
As for where to buy costumes, don't buy one. It's expensive and you never know if it'll be good-quality. =) Make your own, it's fun, MUCH mess expensive, and your quality and authenticity can be as good as you want it to be!

Well if you are going to be such a stickler Edgeworth's hair is an ash color in the 7/8 level range. I recommend that instead of being a Negative Nancy you offer OllyDolly some links to some nice LIGHT GREY wigs to style. Because that's what she wants.
When you do decide use hair-color spray you'll come to learn real quick that silver hair-color spray (or any hair-color spray for that matter) will not stay well in human hair let alone synthetic fibers. It flakes onto your clothes/costume and looks really trashy. You'd be better off dying your hair (not synthetic fibers) with a semi-permanent or demi-permanent color. If you wanted to dye a wig I would sugguest Katie Bair's Wig Dye.
Anyways OllyDolly I would recommend using Faux Fatale for an Edgeworth wig. It's a nice wig with high quality synthetic fibers. It's a little on the long side but it would be easy to cut and then style. If you want more selection check out the rest of Amphigory.com or CosWorx.com. Avoid cheap wigs. They will bring you nothing but trouble. You will be happier if you put the extra dollars in now for a nice wig.
Planned:
Larry Butz, Retired 2010
Damon Gant, Retired 2010
Cammy Melee, YCon 2010 (55% Complete)

First thing, thanks a bunch...to both of you (badfangirl, I don't mind if it's negative)
Secondly, your right about 'cheap wigs', I had one for a hallowen party when I was about...10, and it's all tatty and ruined and everytime I pick it up, red hair gets all over the floor...so I might as well shove in a couple of quid (British slang woohoo...Yes i am British) and thanks a load for the links, I'll be sure to check them out

But... I just recommended a good quality eBay costume store. ^_^;; And some of us just don't have the talent for sewing and such. I know that if I tried to make a costume, it would come out crappy. I don't own a sewing machine, and I have no idea where to start with patterning and such. (And yes, I've tried to sew before in the past. It didn't work out well.)
Thanks for the wig recommendations, badfangirl. ^_^ I need an Edgeworth wig myself, I have to really start working on it. O_o
