All --

Can anyone recommend a good tailor in NYC or DC to do custom suits in the $600-1000 range? Or is that range too low to get custom?

Also, if I'm a 40R off the rack almost perfectly, is it worth getting custom suits? I've heard both arguments made strongly on this question.

1 - skip the custom suit route, in that range you wont get what you are looking for. Your much better off buying off the rack and having it tailored since your a 40r. I recommend the tailor on 1st ave & 9th street, I forgot their name but they totally get it - and are affordable.

2 - Get custom shirts instead! I recommend http://www.16sur20.com/, and as an option Thomas Pink. Diablo doesn't agree with me about Pink, I say they are very relevant when getting custom shirts made, best you can find for the dollar.
