Hello, this is my first post. I would like to get opinions on the d'Avenza suits that I've been seeing on Ebay. I recently purchased two for less than $500 each. They seem to be very old stock but excellent quality. Both have single pleated pants which indicates to me that that they are rather old but I don't mind the single pleat. Does anyone have any info info on the quality of these items?

For example:

D'Avenza is a top maker and I think those fall in the "classic," not dated, category. For $500 I think you did quite well. Keep in mind that fit matters a great deal, so if the suit doesn't flatter your proportions, all the quality in the world won't make much difference.

Both of those are definitely NOT dated. I kinda wish I bought that single breasted one.
