LATEST UPDATE: I can no longer offer this service. The customs agent told me that he won't let me send another package, unless I open a company or get some legal statute, and pay tax for the money I earn this way. He's right, and I can't blame him.
However, going through the hassle of opening a company for a few orders now and then it's just not worth it. Plus it costs money to open one (yeah, it's stupid, I know).
So for all of you who contacted me and wanted to order in the future, I'm afraid I can't help you. It's a shame, because I didn't mind some extra pocket cash. Oh, well.

With the dollar appreciation and price discrepancy between the European SuitSupply online store and their stores from other parts of the world, there has never been a better time to order your favorite SuitSupply merchandise from the European website and have me ship it to you anywhere in the world. You’ll save money and I’ll get rich. Actually, I won’t, but at least I’ll enjoy a nice dinner.
What others are saying:
How does the service works?
Simple: you place the order using your credit card/gift card/PayPal, and you have it shipped to my address in Romania, Europe (yes, it’s an actual country – not a salad).
When I receive the order, I'll take pictures of the items and send them to you, so you can confirm I've received the right items, in the right sizes. After that, I'll pack everything, weigh it, give you the total price (we'll talk prices in a bit), and ask for the payment via PayPal. Once I receive the payment, off I go to the post office and ship it to you.
Now for the prices:
Shipping price depends on country of destination, but here are a few examples:
(For other countries, or for standard shipping fees for the countries listed above, please send me a private message.)
Insurance is 1,9% of the total value declared.
My proxy service costs 29 euros, regardless of the order size, and it covers everything else: a new box for consolidation in case you need one, printing out the shipping label, PayPal fees, gas for my hungry car to get my big ass to the post office, and a nice steak after I ship the package and hand you the tracking code.
Is it worth it?
In case you're wondering if it's worth it, here's a short case study featuring my last client: He ordered a Havana jacket and a Hudson suit. In the US, it would have cost him $1,000, but with my service, he ended up paying $750, including shipping, insurance and my proxy fee. That’s a 25% discount right there.
Some figures to give you an idea of shipping prices:

Some figures to give you an idea of shipping prices:
- A jacket is around 600-850 grams, depending on size.
- A pair of trousers is 300-450 grams, depending on size.
- A pair of shoes (more specifically, dobule-monks, size 45), in their original box is 1.6 kg.
- The box that comes with every SuSu jacket/suit is about 400 grams, and can fit 1 suit, or 1 jacket and 1 garment bag.
- A bigger box (which I supply for free) is around 500-700 grams, depending on the size.
