Tailoring in Hoi An

Could anybody tell me how much it will cost me to get a tailor made
suit (of decent material) in Hoi An (Vietnam)?
Also, how much will it cost to ship it back to the UK, and how long
will it take? Will i have to pay any customs duty on it?

Thanks in advance everyone,
Loving your work

The suits I had made-up in Hoi An three years ago didn't meet my
expectations.
The material was cheap and the cuts were straight out of the 60s. So
don't expect too much - cost was about $30 each and I wish I hadn't
bothered.
The only good one I got made up was in Hanoi and it cost $80.

Two years ago I was a 3-day stopover at Hoi An.

I made 6 pants for US 7.00 each - imported material from UK.

Still wearing them. Nice fitting.
