Anybody know where I can find this in US?
Well there was a thread someone posted wondering weather or not to go out kilted on St. Patrick's Day. In the end I decided that I will, seeming how my beautiful Gordon kilt just arrived....Anyway. So I thought that to help remove confusion as to my heritage I would order myself a St. Andrew's Cross belt buckle! The one I'm looking for is blue and white enamel, and is ~$30. I'm having no problem finding it in the UK, but it might not get here in time if shipped from overseas. Does anyone know where I might find this in the US?
If you didn't care what happened to me, and I didn't care for you. We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain. Occasionally glancing up through the rain, wondering which of the buggers to blame, and watching for pigs on the wing.

I suspect few people in the US know the Saltire is a Scottish symbol.

You might be right. But more importantly, they will recognize that it isn't IRISH!

It took me a while to find the one I was looking for again...
This is the style of buckle I'm looking for.

Yeah I've seen a bunch of the $60 ones. I'm not looking for one more than $40, as I'm just getting it for this one occasion and likely won't even wear it more than that. Theres a couple of 'em on ebay, but they're coming from overseas and the ship time is listed as 7-14 days. That's cutting it a bit close
