    Buchanan1, here is the email address of the PWC contact: catriona.lynch@uk.pwc.com.

    You may want to look at hiring a kilt for your wedding and then when you have more time (and are still interested) ordering one for yourself.

    I had wanted the experience of my first time in Scotland, researching a bit of family history, and ordering a full kilt pkg handmade from Scotland (which for some reason on average is less expensive than anywhere in Canada - I don't understand).

    I ordered in April when I was on holidays, it seems the retailer would or should have known they were experiencing financial difficulties and notified me of that possibility rather than just taking my payment. At the very least they could have contacted the outstanding customers and informed them of the situation and offered the contact information for the PWC folks handling the accounts - that would have been honourable.

    Good luck with the wedding, maybe there are folks here that could point in the direction of a retailer in the US.

    VAT perhaps?

    I'm sorry to hear about people being ripped off by the Scottish Store, but from the owner's postings in this thread and here, I am not surprised. I hope you are able to get your money back.

    Best regards,
