I've built somewhere between 3 and 5 properly fitted jackets, and, yes, I can do it. (The first was the "flashy dancer" built for Costume-Con 9 FFShow, the most recent full-on project being the Vanamonde Heliotrope coat http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/gallery/cosplay.php?date=20080416)
It's all a question of time; these days spending $800 on a well-fitted suit out of high-quality wool-silk was easily worth the time and expense making it would have been.

I'm a bit surprised you didn't try to just make yourself one. I've seen what you can do, and it doesn't seem out of your league.
