New? kilt seller on eBay: AllScottish.CA

[Snowbear]

If I am going for a product that costs me some money, I always make the seller give his/her clear toughts about their own products. All I ask for is a bit of their personal opinion about what they are selling. If the seller can only tell me good things about their product; then they don't know enough about what they are dealing with. If he/she can tell me honestly what they think about the good sides and the not so good sides about making a purchase with them, then I will be happy to buy there.

In general I will always pay for better service, and for the professional service. That a seller gives a clear advice is crucial for having me as a customer.

Just like when I was a guide and should sell souvenirs to tourists. I would always tell them the whole truth, not what they want to hear. It's better to let them buy a $5 knife and they knowing it's a fake chinese made. If they really want a good knife, buy the one at $50.

Kiltmakers that help others here on the forum without directly benefit from it will always be the first ones that comes me in mind when I'm advicing others where to get their first kilt.

That's pretty much why I won't work anything that has to do with retail or sales. Integrity is important!

That being said, I don't think I've ever seen a group of people so willing to sell someone else's product at the expense of their own. To me that make the kiltmakers here like Jerry, Rocky, Barb, et al. top notch folk.

Colonel MacNeal sir: the label inside says its 100% Pure New Wool. I know my fabric and this is wool. I'd call it a medium weight, myself, definitely not light weight.

Well it appears that I don't know my fabric. After 3 or 4 wearings I noticed the beginnings of the kind of pilling I've come to expect from acrylic fabric, so I did a burn test and got the same results that have been posted all ready on this thread. This isn't wool, despite the label. Ah well.....

This is more proof that it is not Seans fault. He doesn't put the labels on...
