    I think I found a bargain

    I just received an eBay purchased Argyll jacket, waistcoat, dress sporran, belt, flashes, and Stillwater kilt. I was very happy to find that the items are all in great shape, and the jacket and waistcoat are heavy wool-Wallace Collection-made in the UK.
    Got the whole package for $150 plus shipping, and it fits like it was tailored for me. So was this a really good deal as I believe it was?

    Re: I think I found a bargain

    The jacket and vest alone are probably retail worth more than twice what you paid. So if you are happy with what you got you made out like a bandit. Congrats, and remember the first law of xmarks---no pictures, it didn't happen! So post soon.

    Re: I think I found a bargain

    I'd say that sounds like a deal and a half... or maybe even two deals! I can't say for sure, however, until I see pics

    If I send you my measurements, would you go shopping for me?

    I will get pics up as soon as I can get my spousal unit to give me the pics, which now reside on her camera.
