I recently took a few suits to a well known tailor in nyc for some alterations and to have two pressed (specifically to improve the lapel roll) as I don't trust dry cleaners to do it correctly (yes, irony). I noticed when I got home that one of the suits (a brand new suit btw) was very shiny on the lapels (and even the texture changed). It's absolutely clear that they used too much heat, didn't put a protective cloth over it when pressing, or some other screw up or combination thereof.
I have not been going to this guy for very long and thus don't have much of a relationship with them. In fact, my main interaction so far has been around scheduling difficulties. It was not one of their suits either. But frankly speaking, they kind of ruined it. I can still wear it I guess, but yea they messed it up, and it is a new suit... and btw they charged me $40 to press two suits (just the lapels).
What should I do? I picked the suit up yesterday and just noticed it now when I pulled it out of the closet. They also have two very expensive suits with them now undergoing alterations.
Thanks for any advice
