A common advice - To all the guys here asking for affordable suiting.

I have read through almost all of the forum post here, and found people asking for some great suiting without emptying their pockets. I could have replied to all those threads (but i'm kinda lazy) and thought its a better idea to post here (if the Mods are not angry at me ;))

Lets come to the point, most people want great suiting at an affordable price without risking themselves getting 'cheap stuff'. I can only suggest based on my personal experience, here is what I can recommend. I read that my tailor (whom I've tested over time) is going to be in town sometime this month (March 2012) - in case anyone needs anything, check out their dates on their facebook page - www.facebook.com/crowntailor.
They do offer some more affordable jobs than the local tailors we have here in NY and elsewhere around!. Suits can probably be as cheap as $400 but they fit well, look good and don't fall apart (That's what you need actually).

I'll keep you all posted about more news & upcoming discounts on suitings in NY, so stay tuned.

--- Lets Look good, afterall it's our right to do so. ----
