    As it turns out, they have a few more rules than "call ahead." They don't do same-day calls, and they don't do weekends, at all, at all. I thought it was a little silly that the lady was saying she couldn't promise to be there when I showed up, because of her drive time across the Valley -- I, after all, was coming from Flagstaff, which is a little further away then her commute. But, y'know, whatever. Her rules are, at least one day's prior notice, and no weekends.

    I have a kilt from KiltMart in Hunting Stewart.

    It was around $75.00. It is good enough for day wear, but not for high formal.

    It is a good "starter" kilt, although there is equal quality for less $$ available.

    Keep looking - Ask questions - Make your choice - Buy the kilt!

    Tell us about it!

    That's so silly. You'd think she'd want the business. I've personally never been to the shop, but both my brother's have. They said it's not really a "store" per say. It's more of a corner of a pawnshop, or something like that. It might just be better for you to order online, rather than drive down from Flagstaff, and risk her not even showing up.

    They also sell very heavily on eBay. I suspect that most of thier business is eBay and mail order related.

    As I found out when I made a long drive to a "local" kilt maker - her shop - her rules!
