Don't pay. If he wants the suit, give it back to him. He shouldn't get any money.

WTF is this? He should have mentioned this before hand, he may be wealthy and can just drop $500 on a suit like nothing, doesn't mean he should expect everyone else can.

Talk with the other guys who got suits, I doubt you're the only one pissed off by this. I personally wouldn't pay for it and you have no obligation to quite frankly.

Would drop this douche like a hot coal, not pay him and not talk to him again. It's one thing if he was broke, but he's a DOJ lawyer...

The were 3 others, one is a guy I don't know, the other is a beta doormat that will just take it, and the last was his brother, in the breakdown email he lists everyone's charges (I get the 528, same with doormat) the other guy gets like 600 because he hasnt paid his share of the bachelor party 75~ yet, and his brother got charged like 150$.

Apparently he charged his own brother too.

wtf is stand/stood up? If you're part of the groomsmen helping his ass, he needs to rent you a suit or buy you a suit if he wants to be fancy. The fuk charging you for his wedding. Charge his ass for your time by the hour.

He is actually giving invoices even for his bachelors party like he is some sort of compay? LOL. Just lol.

I have to ask, how and why did you ever become friends with this guy? Are you short of friends?

I don't get it.

I told you the email to write earlier.

Do it.

why did the guy getting married have to organize his own bachelor party? the groom's party is supposed to organize and pay for it, not the guy himself sending out invoices after LMAO. Either way him sending you a bill is pretty fuking scummy, return it.

Yeah, I'd tell him to pound sand.

I rented tux's for my groomsman. I'd feel like a complete douche expecting them to pay for anything.

that's when you re evaluate your level of 'friendship' and probably lower this down the scale!

i'm getting married and i'd never do this to my groomsmen. i'm buying my tux for myself, but trying to figure out the best looking and most affordable options for my friends so they don't have to fork over too much money. and i'll run everything by them as well. it's just being considerate. unless my friends were all wealthy as ****, i wouldn't do something like this and even then i'd ask everyone up front if they wanted to buy suits.

OP i actually won't respond at all.

You are opening up a conversation that isn't needed. And that could be used against you in a court of law later down the road. Let him chase if he feels that strongly. You could perhaps respond to the second email but with him trying to get 500 bucks out of you before it was agreed, he can go fk himself. srs.

Not to mention OP mentioned nothing about the other grooms mans complaining about this chit. Have a feeling OP went along for a ride hoping it was free.

" I am looking into the discounts we can get if we sign up for things like store credit cards."

He never said "I" he said "we", how did you not pick up on that and at least ask the question? It's shady as phuck asking your boys to pay for their suits but you should have asked him after seeing this email.
