considering that I have several thousand dollars invested in these (and they are not my size, so I certainly don't plan on keeping) ...
for those that had enough interest to look, but aren't biting, are these the wrong size, the wrong style, or the wrong price?
I thought these were a pretty good offer

In my case, the only thing keeping me from snatching that navy 40R is all the $$ I have tied up in B&S inventory myself

This is one sweet haul though, I say take it straight to ebay and don't mess with us ingrates on SF.

Absolutely great suits and very good deal. Not absolute bargain basement, but what do you expect for a super 150s solid navy??

If I wasn't committed to bespoke, I'd buy both 40 regulars!

that was my first instinct, but I've gotten a lot of great deals here, not all of which were supercheap, but great items and thought I should try here first
when I look at what I've gotten on ebay to what I've picked up here, I realize that ebay is hit or miss (unless I know exactly what I'm getting.. ie something I've tried on before) and is often slightly disappointing
The items I've purchased here on the other hand tend to be surprisingly nicer than described and I've been introduced to labels that I'd previously never looked for before (thanks ed for opening my wallet to Valenini!)
I stop my ranting and prepare for ebay or a return

If you had that navy one in a 38R I'd be interested.

I'll keep an eye out, but I bought everything I could find!

Wrong time of the year for me! My wallet is still recovering from Christmas shopping, otherwise I'd be all over the 40R Navy
