Finally I asked DHL---"WHY ARE YOU HOLDING UP THIS ONE BOX WHEN THE OTHERS HAVE ALREADY BEEN DELIVERED"
One of our suppliers always marks the Kilts as Skirts-Because people know what skirts are, sometime smarking them as Kilts - gets them hung up.
Interesting thing about DHL,,they charge the lowest amount for clearing customs and handling that end of the paperwork for you
Royal mail and The USPS are the best way to go for a single kilt purchase. I can't say what would happen with a bulk order, but for a single kilt, I've purchased 3 from Scottish suppliers and none has been held up in customs. Mark, I do plan on ordering one of your kilts at some point. When I do order, please ship any carrier other than DHL. I'll gladly pay extra to avoid ever dealing with those "fruit cakes" again.
