I cant tell you exactly, but thats the reason he was thrown out of his place and the hatbox. (I dont know the full story, but being thrown out of two stores isn't a very good sign)

I actually only have good experiences with him. Pretty good prices and did great job mending my torn cuffs (my most recent job, of many)

I'm happy to hear  :)

I have nothing personal against him. I just try to stay away from him since he caused problems in the past.

I use Dominick but I would use a local guy for simple jobs if I knew any.

That reminds me, awhile ago I used the tailor at white on white (on south clifton). I don't remember if he did a good job, but I do remember that it was same day service and very decent pricing.

just rumors? Or u know for fact he stole?

Again, what kind of problems have you had with him?

Again, like I said before - he wasn't kicked out of two local stores for no reason.  I'm not looking to make up stories and will therefore not debate about this.

The reason I don't use him has nothing to do with the quality of his tailoring.

How do you know he didn't have a business dispute with them, like about rent or whatever deal they had going, again, it's hard for a taylor yo steal. He was in both of those stores for a very long time. Maybe he's a velt's ganev, but leaving/kicked out of 2 stores is not proof of anything.
