Alteration costs?

[samurman]

I think it should not take more than 2 hours for a skilled furrier to do the job you describe, but I don't know how much they would ask for it. In my experience, if you go to the furriers with such small projects they may want to overcharge you, because they are dedicating their time and effort to you and there is a fixed cost with that. But if you tack these projects onto a major purchase, they might just do it for free, as a complimentary gesture:)
