This Powell of Wales tartan can be found on Scotwebs pages too: http://www.scotweb.co.uk/tartan?filt...owell+of+Wales so I think it is not needed to buy it outside EU. Again more than £300 for only the tartan (min 8 metres £396 inclusive VAT).

For me this has been just curiosity if it really is that one has to buy everything from over the Atlantic. Most of which have originally been made in EU (or UK).
No I contacted Scotweb a few days ago and they told me they couldn't get the tartan I wanted. I think Wales Tartan Centres has an exclusive deal with them, an independent kiltmaker told me the same. I don't know why the tartans are on their website. The cloth sells at £48 a meter excluding VAT from Wales Tartan Centres, so the Scotweb prices wouldn't reflect that.
