I strive to have quality items in our museum gift shop, both because I think it reflects well on our museum, and also because I am proud of the artisans,
Matt,
I agree with you and I am in the poboy catagory also. I would prefer to save my money and buy one quality product rather than have to buy several lower priced and usually lower quality item. It just makes better since to me. My Kilts and other Highland wear are an investment and they should and will last a lifetime.
Now that being said, I do shop around and hit ebay often.You can find real deals if you look, I found my pc and waist coat on ebay for $68 it sells on J. Higgins for $275.
So each to thier own but usually paying a little more for quality up front saves money in the long run.
Thats my $0.02

Thanks
J.
