Frugal Corner Update

**Marshal Moroni** · 26th September 07, 08:44 PM

Greetings to the Rabble,

I thought you'd like to here what I've heard from Frugal Corner.

While I was getting an update on my custom 16 oz kilts (I'm a man of substance, and cannot buy off the rack), I was told that in addition to the two shipments inbound with FedEx, thy have 800 kilts, 600 sporrans, 400 kilt pins and a many other things coming over the next two weeks.

They have actually hired a Customer Service person, (I spoke with her today!)so they are no longer a 2 man show.

Looks like they are working through their growing pains and are growing through them.

As soon as I receive my kilts from them I'll get a review with pictures posted.

Cheers,

So far my only dealings with them was when my niece ordered her Pride of Scotland material. I do plan on getting some kilts from them soon. They seen to genuinely care about their customers. I am pleased with them

Yippee - but the proof is in the pudding!

As I mentioned on another thread, their 16 oz kilts are oh so nice!
AND, check out their website...major improvements! I think they are definitely getting things in order!

Good to know they're getting on top of things.

I'm glad to hear it. They have several kilts I'd like to own.

Well I agree that they are working on getting better, but they are not there yet. I called (and left a message) to see if they had a brass belt buckle that was pictured on the site. I mentioned that I would like to get it quickly and would gladly pay the necessary shipping. Well they don't have any buckles (I got the same "we should have them in a couple" of weeks story, but they took two days to call me back on a simple question. Granted I was not desperate for the item, but if I had, I would have moved on long before they got back to me.

Well, I'm glad that they are getting their act together. It's a great store, it started out wonderful, but then it got swamped. Now, it appears that things are beginning to shape up a bit. Hip hip huzzah!

I emailed them asking about a sporan two weeks ago to see if it was in stock never heard anything back. Don't think I'll deal with them.

Now that they've got a Customer Relations person, they've responded to my e-mails quite quickly. Give them a month or two to get back in order, and then give them an order.
