I hope you did not feel forced to purchase the second one. That is certainly not a good business practice by Luis. He will be losing more business if he continues to do this. I have heard a few things about him recently that were concerning.

PattyB said: While I like Luiz, I've had issues with him as well when it's come to the suit fitting me as they always come out too small (top & bottom) and I'm not comfortable. When you confront him that you're not satisfied, he gets mad and argumentative and so I no longer buy from him. His suits are around $80 to $100 and if you want a wrap to go with it, it's another $25 to $40. I can't justify spending that kind of money on a bathing suit that SHOULD fit perfectly but does not and so it sits in the drawer. Had same experience and no longer deal with him-moved on to other vendors

TravelHat said: Just my opinion but I always thought this was kind of weird. "Please get naked and I will fit you with a custom suit" Then you hear a lot of dissatisfaction, which leads you to believe he isn't much of a creator of custom suits. Again just my opinion as I am sure he has many satisfied ladies. I agree. Then he gets paid too. What a job..

Wearing a bathing suit, or not--at the proper place and time--is a personal choice..

It's funny - his is a business that could benefit hugely from word of mouth, especially from repeat visitors to the island who tend to share their experiences on travel forums.

OK, I don't really know him from Adam, but I think it's time for this one to be over.
