I know, but i would be willing to settle a little for a good looking suit, if the price is affordable.

That sentence doesn't mean much until you define the terms.

Meaning to say, i don't need top quality, just it shouldn't be junk. Looking around the 100-150 range.

Can't get cheap suits anymore. (Go to law school.)
+1 It's a never ending search/hit or miss...
I was in century today, the place had tons of frummies there.
Which one, Morristown?! ;D JK!
I used to go downtown one all the time, stopped going there after I discovered the one in Queens, it's not infested with annoying slow-moving tourists ;)

I used to go downtown as well, but didn't like the bumper to bumper traffic, that's when i discovered the brooklyn one, much more spacious, although the downtown one has - no doubt - more selection.
