Scotweb Order Delivery Time

**TheOfficialBren** · 21st January 13, 01:58 AM

I have ordered a hat from Scotweb. I am very excited about receiving it. I understand that it will take some time, usually around 15 business days to arrive.

Have most of you who have ordered ready stock items received them in or around this time-frame? Just curious. I am considering a kilt from them, too, but I want to get a feel for the delivery time.

Thanks so much. I appreciate your feedback, folks.

By the way, Nick's staff is really friendly! If you ever speak with them by phone they are some of the most polite customer service reps that I have ever spoken with from any company!

Anything I have ever ordered from Scotweb has always appeared before the expected arrival date. I agree they are wonderfully polite.

Items coming to me in Ohio (USA) from the UK by Royal Mail, generally arrive in about 10 days or less. A couple extra days to the left coast would be no surprise.

Same here. Especially, when I would order my Balmoral bonnets and HoC hose from Chris at Dunadd.

Cheers,

I have ordered a number of items from Scotweb. Except for those which were shipped just prior to Christmas, they arrived within about a week, and this was using Royal Mail (no extra charge.) Dealing with them was no problem and I was pleased with the quality of my purchases.

Excellent! Thank you. I ordered an umbrella for a friend and a hat for me. Yes, Kyle, it was the fore-and-aft hat. Lol.

The Official Bren ,

I ordered an 8 yd , 16 oz , Balmoral series kilt from Scotweb in Montgomery Blue Green Modern tartan last year , right about at this exact time of year . The tartan I choose was not a popular stock tartan, but , it also wasn't a custom weave .

Scotweb's estimated delivery at the time of order was 10 to 12 weeks , which was perfectly fine as I expected at least that timeframe . I actually recieved the kilt in 8 weeks and it was superb , the quality elements were all there . I had a few e-mails back and forth with the staff at Scotweb while the kilt was being made and they were always quick to respond .

A couple of things to bear in mind , the lead time of the tartan you want and the time of year when you place the order .

I purposely waited until this time of year to place my order . The Holidays were over , kilt orders for Burns Night celebrations had passed , spring and summer Highland Games weren't at the forefront of people's minds yet , thus I suspected this time of year might be slow and I might get the kilt a little sooner ( which I did ) .

I have ordered several items from Scotweb and they have always been great to work with . I just wanted to let you and others know that part of the speedy delivery was probably attributed to " time of year " .

It would be unfair to Nick and Scotweb to use my example as " standard procedure " . I was perfectly happy with their original timeframe , but they were able to exceed that , so they did . They could have taken the entire 12 weeks and no one would have known the difference , but they did not . They made my kilt and the timeframe was sooner rather than later , so they inspected it and shipped it . They didn't drag their feet about it , nor did they hurry up and cut corners .

Very , very pleased . Currently , it's my " go to " kilt . There are many great kiltmakers here on Xmarks and many great companies . I haven't done business with all of them yet , although I plan to as much as I can .

Back to your original question . If you are thinking about a kilt from Scotweb , my experience with them has been very positive .

Best regards , Mike
