Another possible difference between the Hong Kong and the tour price is that the tour price includes shipping and custom duties. Since I never order in Hong Kong, does the Hong Kong price include shipping and customs?

My experience is that the tour price and the HK price are the same.

I think with VBC Super 120 or 130 the suits are still about $1,100.

As to the matter of the HK price and the tour price, remember that HK orders are given precedence and take multiple fittings. The tour orders are completed over a space of three months, and they can work on them during otherwise slow periods. This may account for the seeming anomaly of the HK prices and tour prices being the same, notwithstanding the added costs of shipping and duty for the latter.

No difference. Quoted the same $1,451 price.

So I can see Chan the next time they come to DC and get custom-made for $1100? Holy ****. Gawds, I hope my promotion and raise go through.
