One way to look at it is the usage of a suit rather than the final price. Some of us cannot justify the extra cost of a suit because we use it maybe 5 times a year.
If we use the previous user's anectdote of $120 rental per day...
Average schmo like me...
$700 suit / 5 times = $140 per use. Might as well rent at $120 per day if keeping it for only 1 year.
But for bax's situation...
$700 suit / 35 times = $20 per use. Renting at $120 is complete BS. (haven't factored in after year 1 either)
$1400 suit/35 times = $40 per use. Renting is still BS
$2800 suit/35 times = $80 per use. Renting is still BS.
One way to look at it.
