It's been up for a while, so he must have a mess of it. The price is good, I don't know about the quality. Item number 120138701256
They state that the fabric is the last 4 yards. That it is 16 oz. new wool, woven in Scotland, with kilt selvedge. I just placed a bid. I hear a Military Box Pleated Traditional calling my name.

Everyone else, hands off!
Convener, Georgia Chapter, House of Gordon (Boss H.O.G.) Where 4 Scotsmen gather there'll usually be a fifth. 7/5 of the world's population have a difficult time with fractions.
Did you see these other offerings from the same vendor? Regulation Gordon Tartan http://cgi.ebay.ca/Regulation-Gordon...QQcmdZViewItem MacDonald of Sleat http://cgi.ebay.ca/MacDonald-of-Slea...QQcmdZViewItem
Yes, I've been thinking hard about the Gordon for a while. If I ever wanted to gulp hard and try a military box pleat, that'd be the stuff to do it with.
I've got some of that (the 16 ounce Leatherneck, that is!), and Barb T does too! I'm no hand at judging worsted wool (and in fact haven't even held it yet) but Barb---well, let's just say she wrote the book!----and she said that it looked "beautiful" when she received our order.
