I'm sorry to say that I am in the midst of a problem with a previously trouble-free vendor (though not a forum advertiser).

On Sept. 14 I ordered two kilts from Amerikilt. I'm preparing a wardrobe for a tropical vacation in January and I have really enjoyed my one Amerikilt in hot weather. So, why not a couple more?

The kilts were shipped on Oct. 10 so I concluded that they had to be made for me. They arrived on Oct. 17. I pulled them from their box and they looked fine. On trying them on they were both too big, about three inches too big.

In the past eight days I have sent three emails and left one voice message with no response. The purchase was handled through PayPal so I have registered a dispute with them. I have done this because there are time limits in place should the dispute go to judgement by PayPal.

I don't know if there are extenuating circumstances that have prevented a reply but I'm covering my butt.

I know many members have purchased from Mr. Butler as have I in the past, without issue. I am still hopeful that all will work out but ........
