- 0 points: My choice rests on a ranking, star rating, social-media post or hotel referral.
- 1 point: I have reviewed the tailor’s business-suit examples, but have not discussed whether its usual style suits me.
- 2 points: I have reviewed relevant completed work and discussed my brief with the person responsible for fitting. We have identified what the tailor can reproduce, what would differ and any limitations.
Next evidence to obtain: Relevant commission examples, preferably including different views and an explanation of the fitting work. Request consented references or anonymized records where useful; do not request another customer’s private measurements.
The FTC recommends checking multiple sources rather than relying on ratings alone, and examining the details behind reviews and comparison sites. (consumer.ftc.gov)
