The only way this might work would be for the customer to put up the cost of the kilt plus a $50 deposit plus expenses plus the cost of two way shipping (courier) plus insurance up front. The sample kilt is shipped, inspected by the customer, then returned by the agreed upon date. Upon receipt of the goods, the kiltmaker releases the deposit and Bobs yer uncle.

But if you do this several times, you've put quite a bit of jingle into the pockets of the post office. No biggy if you've got deep pockets.

But on the other hand, if you deal with reputable kiltmakers (like Rocky) in the first place, then all of this is quite unnecessary.

And I think it's debatable whether ebay vendors, would want to be bothered with the hassle of it all.


My thoughts.
