If you look at the B&S forum, there are some good deals, better than the stores. Virtualclotheshorse.com is having a killer sale right now

Yes, I agree - the online sales are much better than the stores!

Fair enough, but nothing compares to being able to see, touch, and try on clothing before purchase. I'm not confident enough yet to buy stuff online when it might mean spending a few hundred on something that doesn't fit or doesn't actually go with anything in my wardrobe.

go with a company with easy, inexpensive/free return policy and free shipping to you.

Would that I lived in the states. Here you pay absurd duties on every package from outside the country (twice if you send any back) and most companies only offer credit on returns. If you know of any Canada-friendly American/English corporations or Canadian retailers with generous ordering policies, please let me know.

Six suits over the last two months. Two Sammys, three Hickey's and one Sartorio with a mean price of right around $300. The deals were out there and they were quite nice if a person took the time to search.

Very happy with all the purchases and will continue to buy suits if they stay at this price level.

I haven't been into a store since Christmas. I may stop in San Francisco on Wednesday but I imagine everything will be picked over. But you never know. Sometimes there are late returns and if you just happen to be at the right place at the right time, bingo!

Le noir est de la meurtrissure constante.
