    Anyone dealt with Pipe Band Uniforms.com?

    I posted this thread in Historical dress forum, and probably ought to have posted it here.
    Has anyone dealt with a Pakistani company called Pipe Band Uniforms.com? Their website is http://pipebanduniform.com
    They have very reasonable prices and claim to supply most of the dealers. They have a wide range of products, but I hesitate to dive in without hearing from someone who has bought from them. It seems to be a crap shoot when dealing with Paki dealers.
    Let me know if you know anything about them - good or bad.
    Thanks

    Most of WHAT dealers? Pakistani dealers or Scottish dealers or US Dealers or pipe band dealers or kilt dealers?

    I've never heard of them and certainly wouldn't use them as a supplier.

    I think their claim is that they supply most of the other Paki dealers. That in itself gives me pause.

    Sorry to say but I think it looks like crap!! I'd save my money if I where you.. Probally not worth the effort. Just my two cents.

    Paki products

    I've not heard of them.... Greenland and a couple of others, but not this one. Paki "Scottish" attire seems to pop out of all corners of Sialkot. I get emails all the time from different companies. There are a few good products that come out of that country, but you can get real substandard products with no recourse. They require cash up front, so you may or may not get your products. I used to order hackles from Pakistan, but the last order took nine months of constant emails for them to deliver the order. I've stopped.

    our Drum Major ordered his doublet from there. I don't know what the cost was but the garment is a little "thin" to me. I know this from helping him get his Plaid on before a performance
    And Shephards we shall be for thee my Lord for thee; Power hath descended forth from thy hands; That our feet may swiftly carry out thy commands; So we shall flow a river forth to thee, And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In nomine Patri, et fili, et spiritus sancti.
