    Yep, those are nice...

    The prices aren't bad, but they're not exactly a bargain, either.

    Now, if they had a nice low price on a full-mask red fox sporran...

    I guess I don't want a mask sporran, but that Arctic fox is gorgeous.

    The eBay ad says "made to order" . That, along with the photos taken right from the L&M website suggest that this seller is an L&M dealer.

    But why doesn't the seller advertise that is an L&M sporran? I would think that people would be more likely to bid if that was stated.

    An L&M dealer is someone who sells products made by L & M Highland Outfitters

    Good call Sciuropterus, looks like the L&M stock photos to me, too....

    I would much rather see photos of the actual items in the auction....

    Too me, that is the one downside of the L&M sporrans and all the websites and vendors that list them... The photos are all stock, and do not reflect what your sporran will actually look like, especially if you are buying real fur... The photos are representative, but there are bound to be natural differences....

    The aformentioned is not the fault of the vendors, but just the nature of the custom-made sporran business.... L&M can't give photos of the actual items, because they don't exist until after they are ordered....

    The prices aren't bad at all though.... not bad at all..... extrememly competitive with even the larger L&M dealers like Kilt and Thistle and Scottish Lion....

    They are L&M Products. No real reason to advertise that they are though...They are hand made products and L&M doesnt retail. I will get some custom pics taken soon though.

    (if you havent figured it out yet, I do have a stake in this company... My wife asked me if she could start this and I have encouraged her all the way!)

    I think it is a great idea!!!

    From all the clues and the poster.... should have figured this out...

    Anyway, I will admit I am a bit jealous, as this would be something I would like to do too (but never will)...

    Will it be just the mask sporrans as a specialty, or does she plan to offer other sporrans???

    The prices are good!
