When I'm done with this law gig, I'm going to start a bespoke Appreciation business. Any potential backers? Clients?

Depends on where you want it taken in.

Double vent definitely costs more.

I presume an action back is extra, but double breasted should be included in the starting price.

how about this fellow - what size of drop?

We cater to all tastes, no matter how eccentric. Single-breasted, open quarters, hand work, machine work, etc.

I have a feeling Despos will not reply to your post asking about starting prices. Maybe you should track down the dates of his next NY visit and show up to his hotel unannounced.
