    I'm not worthy.......

    Just one.
    A black day sporran. Which I was suprised to find was pretty nice quality considering it came from Pakistan.

    Oh, and a black nylon fanny pack/ holster that I wore before getting the sporran.

    That's it - game set and match to Hamish!

    From a guy with one kilt, one home-made belt, and one pair of kilt hose (donations welcome). ;-)

    I am not complaining, Robin! Since I have no interest whatsoever in 'blades' or weaponry of any sort, I wear the Sgian Dubh only when formally dressed, and as that does not happen very often, I have no need of more of them.

    Everything else I have listed I DO need! ;)

    I think it is safe to say we can declare Hamish the Sporran King.

    Question

    OK, it looks like you are an expert! ;-) So, let me ask you a question. On eBay you can find plenty of sporrans, but prices vary a lot. For example, which is the difference between item #8245921031 (use eBay search to see it) and item #5461408077? Apart price, of course. They look very similar, but price is totally different.
