Err.. ahhem. I mean, yes, prices. I've gotten to a place where I'm happy to throw money at garb. I know I do not have the skill or time it takes to make what I'm looking for. (We should talk about fabulous Poles)
For beginner - I'd have put down $30 on a solid made tunic, and probably the same for trews. For Rapier, I can't comment. I put down $200 for the Siberian Battle Tutu, and $75 for it's Lighter version 2.0 cousin, so take from that what you will. - K.
I don't know that poles did stripes - I'd have to do some more research into 1550's Polish clothing.
For gits and shiggles I'm thinking about doing up a really spiff gentleman's kit from the period and cross dressing. Complete with faux leopard pelt. :)
