I like the responses, keep em up!
You've got exactly the right idea. What you should be buying, right now, is anything silver mounted-- kilt pins, sgians dubh, sporrans, belt buckles. My first silver mounted sgian dubh cost $35, brand new, from a shop (JR Christie), in Santa Monica, California. Today the same item is over 300 GBPounds (about $475) in Scotland.
Save up and buy the very best accessories you can because you will never out grow them.
