Hi,

Happened to see this on e-Bay, item ":

170040982720

Can't imagine too many being sold though seller does say in part:

"This is an excellent, value for money kilt"

Ain't no kilt worth 7G's. It is a great value for the seller! Only an idoit would give that much for something worth, at the most 1/10 of that

So I says...

"Uh.... over 3000 pounds for one kilt? Don't you think that is a bit excessive???"

Lets wait for the response.......

Think :rolleyes: he put his decimal point on the wrong salival. :confused:

Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...2720%26fvi%3D1

Must be a mistake. If ebay charges him fees, based on his listing price, he's going to be very unhappy.

Edit: I took a look at his web store. the rest of his kilts are listed at 37.99 GBP or 71.27 USD. Clearly a brain fart when placing the decimal point.

I can tell by the buckles and pic that it's a **** Kilt (also... look at the standard 24" length and the fact he called it a "Casual Kilt" and the fact that it's shipping within 24 hours and has no hip measurements specified). I agree that it's probably a mistake in the decimal point... 38 POUNDS ($70 USD) sounds MUCH more reasonable.

If a kilt dates from the late 18th century, it'll be worth about $10,000+.. I think the Malcolm Kilt(I think it's a Malcolm) at the STM is worth about that. They have another kilt there, possibly worth more. I don't exctly remember what tartan and the exact age and all..

I'm not defending the ebay kilt, just bringing up facts.
