Did I rob Blacktie? Or vice versa?

    Hi there. I needed a Tux for a debs so today I headed down to Blacktie. Very nice guy there, measured me up, and the total cost of 2 button evening tux, evening trousers and a plain front shirt was €59!

    Did I inadvertently buy a bin-bag? The tux I tried on felt ok, but that was probably a different one just for size purposes. The brand of the tux is DENVER, if anyone can tell me what kind of quality that is, it would be much appreciated! It never occured to me until I was half way home that I had expected to pay at least €150, they advertise debs suits FROM that price.

    I really don't know what I've bought, and feel lik a right fool.

    Help me, fashionistas.

    seems reasonable price for RENTAL, but way to cheap for PURCHASE

    Ha, well there's a first for everything. I said initially to him that "I needed a suit for a debs", so he must have thought immediately - rental.

    Ah well, noobish shopper is noobish, caveat emptor and all that.

    I hired a suit from there and never brought it back. You may consider this avenue only if you paid cash.

    I didn't think blacktie did purchase options - aren't they ONLY rental?

    Edit: looks like I was wrong - they do do sales. Although I imagine they prefer to rent.
