I notice alot of shirts I like have the annoying pockets on the chest... I also notice most with pockets are alot cheaper... I guess its not as dressy... Anyway, if i took like 12 shirts w/ pockets into a tailor to get them removed..would it cost more than its worth?

Buy a seam ripper and do it yourself, piece of cake. The fabric will heal itself after a wash.

A Serger sewing book recommended brushing with a fabric brush and steaming after ripping the seams out.
