*tenting fingers like Mr. Burns* exxxcellent.... a good choice, but I have to agree with the last post...for roughly $700 you COULD opt to buy a suit on ebay. if you aren't comfortable with that, I would check
www.bluefly.com again JUST before you actually order your suit, to see if there might be a real steal. if you decide on the hickey freeman, I think you will be very pleased; hopefully, you checked out the story/ pictures of how every HF suit is constructed and sewn. the boardroom model MAY have a superior cloth or more squared shoulders, but.....hey, you could always call the experts at the store in NYC at Hickey Freeman (212) 586-6481 (the staff is very helpful, i think). PS when you decide on a suit and take it to a competant tailor for alterations, you might ask about your measurements (shoulders, chest, etc.), and write down all the measurements of the jacket and trousers (see the post on 'measuring for ebay') once they fit you properly. this should give you all the ammunition you need.
