    Now the same Pakistani seller has two Ebay listings, the first with a simple computer-graphic image of the tartan pasted over a kilt diagramme, the second using this photo which is almost certainly an image they stole online, perhaps from a member here.

    There's probably only one gent with a Glen Affric kilt and that particular sporran and belt.

    Speaking of being stolen from a member, just below the photo of the kilt, there are additional ads. Modeling a great kilt for sale is someone who looks suspiciously
    like a member here. It is arguably within the realm of possibility that it is legitimate usage, but methinks I would only accept that from him. @Panache

    What a terrible photo! Needless to say they didn't ask my permission.

    That was my first attempt at a great kilt/belted plaid and it felt like I was drowning in tartan. Who on earth would want to buy one based on that photo! OH MY!

    Cheers
