Learned my lesson...#3 on the way

[mkmound]

Well, I've been checking in with near-obsessive regularity, as they said they'd have more Nightstalkers in this month. Yesterday morning, it was only the 48" and 50" that have been up for a while now. Yesterday afternoon? The same. Then later in the day, there was a 34" and a 36" listed. I bought the 36" and the 34" was still there for at least a few hours anyway.

I imagine they'll have more than just those two in stock soon. I wasn't about to risk it though. I've been wanting that kilt for quite a while now.

Of course, in my haste to snatch that one up, I forgot to order the matching flashes. I sent Jerry an e-mail to see if he coudl add it to my order and re-invoice me. He said he'd just throw a pair in the box with the kilt, as it would have been toomuch trouble to mess with the invoicing.

So, another *** (x100) for the SWK customer service!

Now, for one of those DIY kilt jackets on the cheap.

Then the plaids and brooches.

Then the brown leathers.

Then the...

. . .

Congrats on the find. Sounds like your acquisitions are coming along nicely.

From a technical perspective, there is probably a way to have some program monitor a web page for changes, e.g., quantity available . . . :rolleyes:

Yeah, I could stop if I wanted to. Really.

Uh huh . . . you are, no doubt, familiar with our 12-step program??

That's simply awesome. I was thrilled this week when I opened up my SWK package to find:

My saffron kilt (as ordered)
Red flashes for my Wallace SWK Econo (as ordered)
....

And a SWK "kilthanger" (complete surprise as I didn't order one!) Thanks Jerry.

Well, given SWK's speedy delivery history, the Nightstalker should be landing on my front porch sometime in the next couple hours. I'm thinking of getting the fly plaid eventually to go with it, to make it my formal kilt outfit, instead of the Black Watch.

We shall see.

I remember once when I ordered my first standard kilt, it showed up with a kilt pin.

I as everyone here have had nothing but good experiences with Stillwater and I know it certainly keeps me comming back for more. Not to mention I'm addicted to their Heavyweight Kilts.

Wow! The pictures of the Nightstalker on the SWK website do not do it justice. I am very pleased with it - as is the Mrs.! Will get some pics up as soon as I can (and after I give it a once over with new "Steam & Crease" iron to touch up the pleats).

I might just have to break out the nice leather jacket for this one.

This "SWK kilts fit me perfectly" curse will be the end of me, I tell you. But at least I'll go down kilted.
