My experience with the previous incarnation of the same firm was not good. They offered a certain model of sporran that was especially nice and expensive at an unbeatable clearance price. The actual sporrans I received were NOT the model pictured, but were a cheaper more basic model. The price I paid was the current going rate of that cheaper model that I could've purchased anywhere.

You are mistaken, there is NO CONNECTION BETWEEN SCOTTISH LION AND L&M.

Here is the history, back in 1999 We (L&M) set up a retail store called scottishfactory.com. It was brick and mortar as well as online, and it was our local retail outlet. In 1992 it was sold to a local gentaleman. It changed its name to Little Scotland and then aquired the Scottish Lion in New Hampshire and changed its name to Scottish Lion. In the earlier years they did purchase items from L&M, but for the past several years they have not bought anything from us. At no time did L&M own any of Little Scotland or Scottish Lion.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact either myself, Joe MacLean, or my wife Peggie.

Regards,
Joe.
