Dear sirs,

Why do ppl ask how much an alteration will cost when it's fairly obvious that the prices can and will vary drastically from place to place, let alone city to city?

+1, I flew from BUR to SFO via MUC on Lufthansa and got upgraded to first class from business. I slept the whole time, it was like a bed, made of cheese with free pajamas.

lol, there's one born every minute.. why would someone pay a premium of $2,207 for an option on an asset with a maximum value of $491?

I don't sleep on planes therefore I don't care. I wouldn't upgrade for 1$.

If you don't fly first class, are you automatically considered a small-timer?

I'm looking for a pair of formal pants that have a flap on the backside. Should I do horn buttons or brass?

So Fuuma ... are you really a female?
Why do you spend so much time here? I mean ... I troll girls forums, but I don't stay there forever and answer questions.
Do you design or work in the men's fashion industry or something?
And is that pic you (on your avatar)?
