How We Do It
Instead of making an enormous profit on a garment,
we mark it just a little more than actual cost—and depend
on the volume of business thus created. We also buy in
exceptional quantities, thereby at a great reduction. All
in all, you get the benefit.
Our values exceed most people’s idea of our Suits
at the price. All we ask is for you to call and look at
these values. Showing them to you is absolutely no
trouble. It is a pleasure to meet you. You are always
welcome in the Schneider store.
