Baller or not, for what you describe as what you are looking for, to have a QUALITY shirt, that fits correctly as you want, that is the price. No internet MTM service can replicate an actual tailor fitting you and understanding what you are looking for. That is what you are paying for, the fitter's time and talent, plus the actual shirts that are a quality make. Well worth the investment and over time, the actual cost (and frustration) is lower.

Not disagreeing with you in any way. As excellent as that may or may not be, you're simply providing a service that I can't afford. One does what one can with what one has.
