At $50 I'd be a fool NOT to order one...

When I brought up the page it was 50 pounds, not dollars. Including VAT, which gets subtracted when you enter a US shipping address. Plus shipping, of course.
Duties are independent of who you buy from. Some people manage to avoid them, and usually if the items are for personal use and under $200 you won't get charged. Just don't have it shipped Fedex!! I have a lawyer looking into why I have to pay duties a second time for a replacement kilt for the one I sent back to have pleated as ordered. I have one kilt and two sets of duty invoices. 
At about $1.90/GBP, it's almost a wash to buy it overseas, versus sending the business stateside to a kiltmaker well-known on these forums (forae?) for his attention to detail even on the lower end of his line.
Does anyone know if PV is taxed by Customs on entry at the same rate as wool? Rocky?
