So far I have been lucky and I have bought them at more than 70% off.
I am never buying a Boss suit again unless it's less than 250$. Like many members here, I paid a little too much for it some years back.

For a truly regal knot, use three ties...anything less is pleb status.

Also, buy your shirts two sizes larger so you don't have to inconvenience yourself with buttoning.

Cloth matters. Thanks to Manton etc. I have realized that top quality cloth from companies like Lesser makes a massive difference in how a suit feels and wears.

Never post a picture of yourself on-line wearing a suit...

And never post a picture of your wife too...

That I can totally abandon B&M stores and get even better deals on better stuff. That there is a market for used EG boxes.
