Hand Sewn 8 Yard Kilt Price List and Comparison

[bricelythgoe]

Brice:

I offer this in the interests of fairness... The prices you derived are from the various websites (I believe) but some kiltmakers have different sales and offer member discounts. As an example, I have my first wool kilt on order from one of the craftsmen you listed here when they offered a sale in March and that price varies from the web listed price. Further too that, the kilt maker provided very good customer service and assistance with placing the order. For an investment like a good wool kilt that is no small insignificant issue.

You are correct. Since each company has their own discounts/sales, I decided just to compare base prices (to make things a little easier on me). As I said at the beginning, customer service and other factors will affect each price in each individuals mind. That is something each person can take into account when looking at the list.

I guess, I would use list pricing as a generic guide. With this first wool kilt (and I hope with additional ones in the future) it is not the same as, for example, getting a 72" HD TV at Best Buy versus Frye's Electronics. With a kilt it is much more visceral, it is not a commodity. It is an individually created, custom work. I daresay that different than something mechanically produced it is a labor of love to create in many instances.

That is what I was going for. Just a basic list with basic prices. Nothing more.
