Has this spread to other costco's yet? Is this just an American promo?

The lack of pics for us to smugly deconstruct (to death) is killing this threak.

Gotta see this. And is it truly full canvas? Some makers will say that their product has a full canvas - and it does - but there is also spot fusing. To me, when someone says "full canvas" that should mean that there is both a floating canvas and no fusing what so ever is used.

As far as I know (and unless BB does something different now), Southwick does not do full canvas on their MTM suits.

Yes, this was my understanding as well. Its come up here and on AAAC many times, in act. Forumites "confirmed" each time that Southwick makes their coats with floating canvas only in the chest and lapels I believe.

I'm more concerned with actual info on the service rather than pics. If the suit fits well, then that's great, I'll be happy for OP that he got a nice suit for a discount price. But if nobody has any idea when, where, or even if Costco will be running this promotion again, then it doesn't really help anyone else.

I guess it was a hoax

I was hoping to see what was being offered/delivered and had planned to go to the GM of my local Costco and ask him to get this into the local store... oh well

There was definitely info about it on the Costco website page a few months back, but it is no longer available. I remember the website saying the MTM event was only offered in their store in the Seattle area (I think it was Issaquah).
