Complete new, 3 piece casual suit to start, help?

That may well be the best Syms for customer service in the whole chain. But in Manhattan I would probably choose J.Press or Brooks Bros.(346) at sale time for my first suit; you'll get expert fitting for around $500.

Tomasso, I agree, those are good suggestions, but you and I both know what we're looking for in a suit. I suggested Syms because the OP is just starting out and looking for a casual suit. He could feasibly pick up a first suit at Syms for $119-$199 and get used to wearing it, decide how the cut works, etc. then move on to higher quality options later. I guess it really depends on the initial price comfort level - the ebay approach made me think it was fairly low.
