The kilt didn't sell and I've decided to keep it after all. The reason I tried to sell it was because I've had my heart set on one of the replica military kilts from What Price Glory. I only ever bought the Hume kilt as a rather expensive 'casual' kilt (it's too dark to wear for 'dress' occasions - the proper Hume dress tartan is the ancient colours - and I have two other kilts which fill this role anyway) and decided to sacrifice it, as with the exchange rate being the way it is at the moment I thought I couldn't afford to wait. Also, I bought myself a new Buchanan kilt last July and felt that I couldn't justify buying another so soon. If I could have got the price of a What Price Glory kilt it would have been a sort of straight swap, as I would be wearing the new Gordon Highlander's kilt on the same occasions that I would have worn the Hume one. Anyway, after it didn't sell my wife took pity on me and let me go ahead and order one from What Price Glory after all. So now I have the best of both (or I will when my new 22oz military kilt arrives ).
Thanks for all your responses, but most of all thanks to my wife for being so understanding !
P.S. When I get my Gordon Highlander's kilt I'll post pics.
