Have courier deliver costumes (3-3)
I believe the answer is:
get-ups
'costumes' is the definition.
'have courier' is the wordplay.
'have' becomes 'get' ('get' can be a synonym of 'have'**).
'courier' becomes 'ups'.
'get'+'ups'='GET-UPS'
'deliver' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
