    Most expensivest sporran ever ($15,000)

    Holy Moley $15,000 for a sporran.

    New from L&M they're around $725 USD, and one went on Ebay a couple days ago for $325.

    However this sporran comes with Providence, something seldom seen with sporrans nowadays.

    LOL! That's too rich for my blood, even if it does come with "Providence".

    $2-3000 for the sporran
    12-13000 for the provenance

    I guess you'd have to be a really big Billy C fan at that price. Way too rich for my blood.

    There's a Monty Lewis sporran at his online shop that is the most expensive that I would ever consider. And, only if I somehow managed to earn something like 3x my current income in a year.

    So, thanks Billy Connolly, but no thank you.

    And on eBay, yet.

    Of course, you can (sometimes) buy McLarens (or similar Supercars) at Costco. However, I'm surprised they don't mandate buying a six-pack to stay in line with their customary marketing thrust.

    Not promised at some future time, but currently and fully present!

    All Providence is present.
    (More information available on request.)


    Yes I would definitely require more information.

    It's strange, isn't it?

    Superficially a regulation Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders sergeants/officers sporran, but odd around the sides especially towards the top, almost as if they were making do with a skin which was a bit too small for purpose.
