    So, are we paying you or Dalgliesh?

    You are a gentleman, a scholar, and a good judge of bad whisky. Thanks for all the hard work!

    Either their existing sample will be a good match or if it will need to be dyed-to-match (which wouldn't further affect the order time, as we're already custom dyeing one of the colours).

    Either way, once we know, I'll be opening up the orders. The order window will only remain open for ~ 1 week (due to the varying exchange rates).

    If I had to put my guestimate on the calendar, I'd guess the order will open around 28JUNE and close around 05JULY.

    Custom orders from Dalgliesh need to be paid in full, so it's money upfront, and we each handle our own shipping after the fact.

    Could I trouble you to increase my order again, to a total of 10.5 yards please?
    For those who understand, no explanation is necessary; for those who don't, none is possible.

    Just seen this. Will you be PMing all those with orders so as they know how much and whom to pay the money to? I don't want to miss this opportunity just because I don't check the forum everyday.

    That is a cool t-shirt but what PR genius had them take pictures of it all wrinkled? Long-haired goatee guy is bad enough (we cultists have a rep to uphold, you know?) but at least smooth out the shirt.

    I'm still up in the air a bit about what to wear with this kilt. Will have to reserve judgement for when I can see it. It could be so dark as to be almost black, or quite bright. But a nice satiny black button down shirt, green/black tie, bias cut R'lyeh vest, deep purple hose with dark green flash should do the trick.

    Out of curiosity, if some of the colors we are getting are custom, is it possible to get some swatches or thread so we can match them later, or use them for adornment projects?

    See Below.

    Received the last sample from Dalgliesh over the weekend.


    I think this is a fantastic match, and about as close as we'd get with custom dyeing anyway.

    If all agree, we're ready to roll.

    If we agree about this last green I'll be sending a PM to everyone on the list with final details today/tomorrow. The 'buy in' window will be one week.

    That's fantastic, what do they call this colour? Just out of curiosity.

    I was getting curious about when the payment window was open as well, I'm away to camp in a few weeks and I would have hated to miss out because I was away without acces to the Internet.
