Hey,

I've been wrestling over whether or not to trust www.surmesurepascher.com with two hundred euros. For that amount, they promise two tailor made suits. It is a pretty interesting business model, but has anyone tried buying anything from them or any such provider? I appreciate your comments.

Dex

P.S. Ethical concerns over supporting sweatshops?

moignages de Ebay ne compte pour rien. The only thing you can generally do is order their cheapest offering, and inspect the quality of the sewing before deciding to throw more money at them.

How much are you paying? I don't think any of us want to be paid in your suits.

In fact, 80% of translation has been done, and it was a very kind client who has done this for free. We just need to translate about less than 2000 words....
Pay by money or suit, for us it's the same.
( My English is very poor.... thanks guys....)

Doubtless something resembling a suit can be put together for that money. However you get what you pay for and it would never match up to anything better despite what a salesman might have to say to the contrary.

I represent a translator who might consider this task if you can copy these boots for him in every detail. Only this time using real leather in place of Naugahyde .
