Well after the back and forth with the shop that I had put my deposit down with, I have been back to them and cancelled the order. Not to give the idea that this was a flippant decision on my part. It was based on several factors.

1. When I originally ordered the kilt from them, I was told that it was going to be made here in Canada by their kilt maker, and they showed me her work and sold it as such. I gave a deposit to order the fabric and start the process.
2. Bad communication on their part as they decided to change the order to being made in Scotland without prior notice to me. I found out when I called them 3 days later and asked if the fabric was ordered and was told that they needed me to come back in to get better measurements. It was in the store they said that they wanted to have it made in Scotland, but not to worry, it would be made to their specs and standards.
3. The price seemed to constantly slide upwards as items that were initially inferred to be included suddenly had an added cost. for example, A dress sporran was included, but when you picked one, it came with an added cost.

Some of these can be just from bad communication in I didn't have a written sales sheet spelling out every item I was buying, but rather was told we can deal with it later. I may have totally miss understood what was being offered as we talked about many different options and one may have drifted into another.


But I hold no hard feeling against the store and they issued a refund without hesitation or complaint. And in the end I did by a street kilt from them for what I thought was a very reasonable price and I am very happy with it.

I am placing an order for 2 more kilts and some additional kit with John and I am sure he will take care of me as he has for many others here.
