Observations regarding the Greek Economic Meltdown

[WClarkB]

Altho the Brits have kept their GBP instead of switching to the euro, now being hammered by the Greek financial crisis, nevertheless it has taken a hit compared to the USD.

Dalglish has quoted me 31GBP for a minimum of 16 yrds of custom weave 54 inches wide.
given that a knife pleated kilt may be done from 4 yds of the 54inch; the shipping costs are a guess, the "cost kilt max" includes 1.5 yd for a fly as well; then depending on the conversion rate (currently about 1.5) the costs for the material break down as so:

• yrd cost gbp shipping GBP->$ cost min max kilt
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.2 $619.20 $154.80 $212.85
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.25 $645.00 $161.25 $221.72
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.3 $670.80 $167.70 $230.59
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.35 $696.60 $174.15 $239.46
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.4 $722.40 $180.60 $248.33
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.45 $748.20 $187.05 $257.19
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.5 $774.00 $193.50 $266.06
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.55 $799.80 $199.95 $274.93
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.6 $825.60 $206.40 $283.80
• 16 £31.00 £20.00 1.65 $851.40 $212.85 $292.67

We can get the material for a quality kilt for under $200 right NOWThe question is NOW that you can get good stuff at a discount, is anyone interested in combining our resources to help out the brits with an infusion of Yankee capital? message me if you are MacLellan btw.

I am contemplating buying a lot and using what I want, then selling the surplus. The spousal unit will not approve; however, if I can get some unindicted co-conspirators I may be able to swing it
