Just looked at their website. £290 for any tartan, machine stiched, seems like a pretty good deal still, even without the initial 20% discount. Especially when you consider that other suppliers are charging over £600 for a machined custom weave. Did you get the VAT off as well? All the sweeter if you did.
I have two other Dalgleish tartan kilts and assume that this one is too, since they do most of the small batch custom weave stuff. One 13 oz Dalgleish does indeed wrinkle a bit more than the HOE or Strathmore 13s I own. The other 16 is plush and wonderful and no problems. This new kilt I think just spent too much time folded up and tightly bound (at least three weeks) so may be a little tough to get flattened out. More steaming in the offing.

The deal you mention is the one I got, with a somewhat more advantageous exchange rate plus the free shipping. A steal of a deal, although again taking a chance with a vendor of uncertain long term standing. Will probably be ordering a jacket set in tweed soon, especially if I can find another discount code. will post the outcome.
