What is up with Scottishkilts.net?

[Alan H]

This has been a great thread to follow. Good on scottishkilts.net for coming through!

...and good on David for watching xmarksthescot.com !

AND....

The fact that when people go looking for information on kilts and kilt wearing, they'll come here is not lost on the retailers out there.

Alan,
We think a lot alike, I really appreciate the fact that kilt makers check in on us here at Xmarks to find out what we are thinking. Clarify things if they can, and help us out with suggestions and using us a test market. I think this helps both the vendor and the consumer.

When I first joined here the review section was removed, and I followed the thread that caused that to happen, but I remember thinking to myself what a great open site where customers and vendors can discuss things. That particular thread got out of hand I know, but it was still the impression that if I have a question on an item from one vendor or another, I not only get help from other people who have bought them, the vendor actually answers questions as well. To this day it amazes me when one vendor recommends another vedor.

I guess that is why they call this a virtual community, and what a great one it is.

If they only had sales on some of their other 5 yard kilts....like say the Old Langsyne, at the same price as the Irish-American, I would bet they would sell a boat load (hoping David reads this).

I am really suprised that the PV fans have not snapped up the Hunting Stewart 5 yard kilt for $75 US. That is a bloody steal when compared to the other companies selling PV. Bear in mind they are just testing the market with that one. The price can't possibly last much longer. I am very tempted right now. http://scottishkilts.net/products/5_...sual_kilt.html

If you look at their site, you will also notice that they are now selling a huge selection of PV kilts in 5 yard and 8 yard http://scottishkilts.net/store/balmoral_range.html

I ordered the Old Lang Syne Gray from them in Mid-February and heard from them last week it was being shipped. I should get it at my daughter's in about a week when we go back for a visit.

From the picture on their website, I think the OLSG is going to be a great looking dark formal kilt. I could not find it listed in any Tartan list so I'm assuming it is something they have had made up for themselves.

I have also ordered an Argyll jacket and waistcoat, but haven't received any notice from them. Wrote a note two days ago and no reply yet. Those of you who wrote above give me hope everything will come through OK.

I really enjoy reading about everyone on the Forum and the pics!
