More false advertising...and a rant.

And thus welcome to the world of commercialization...

Dude, dude, dude ...... While I truly (no sarcasim) feel your pain, I must say it is things like this that make me an XMarks shopper. If they are not a sponcer or member I do not buy from them. The only kilts I bought befere signing on here were a few from a place in Arizona. I got lucky. They are OK.

Museum Replicas is owned by the Windlass Brothers, who also own Atlanta Cutlery. The bulk of the merchandise offered through the MR catalogue is made at one of several factories they own in India.

I have visited their sword works in India and it is a first class operation, capable of turning out first class swords and daggers. The costuming on offer in the MR catalogue is, quite frankly, made down to a price and, in this instance, it shows.

It is doubtful that any complaint (even one made to US Postal Authorities) will have any material affect on their over-all business practices. It really is a matter of "caveat emptor".

My advise, avoid their "practikilts" like they bear the plague.

That would certainly be period!

[SFCRick]

they look bad

[GMan]

It comes down to this "Let the buyer beware."

Other companies such as Gold Bros are also made down to a price but at least they bear a closer resemblance to the genuine article.

Those are just horrible, to my eye they look like a poorly constructed tartan x-kilt.

[Chef]

If that would pass as a kilt I would take up making my own. Even I could do better than that.
