So it would be over 250 pounds just for the cloth. Then you would have to pay the kiltmaker.
EXCEPT that, if you follow the links to that item (in Douglas Weathered tartan), it's 8 yards of synthetic cloth. On the other hand, if you go back to the site and select, for example, https://kiltsociety.com/collections/...avyweight-wool, the pricing is more in line what one might expect from a kiltmaker in Scotland, although CERTAINLY less expensive than what one would pay at Kinloch Anderson, for example.
