I have discovered a new MTM service in my favourite menswear store in Oslo. It is obiously a larger operation behind this, and I would like to know if anyone know about this vendor. The presentation material is quite impressive;
Shirts; http://collection-material.com/collectionbook/traditional_shirts_eng/
Suits and jackets; http://collection-material.com/collectionbook/traditional_eng/
FW 2012; http://collection-material.com/collectionbook/FW12_Collectionbook/

I would appreciate any feedback regarding quality, pricing and alternative sources for buying.

Some images;

Not an impressive web site at all. It merely collects together ideas found on others and copies them. The under arm "guards" is a practice redolent of Asia in particular which suggests it is merely a front for an Asian operation. Sure;y the information you require on pricing is available in the shop along side opportunities to see the finished article?

OK. It might be an Asian operation, but still with nice fabrics and handwork - at least it looks that way in the PDFs.
I think the PDF presentation it self is nice, but I need input on the actual product.
As far as pricing, I would assume that a store in Norway (the most expencive country in the world) have a higher markup than elsewhere.
They charge from about $250 a shirt and about $1000 for a jacket.
