I just got mine over the weekend - I think I ordered it at the end of February and I was a bit hesitant about the quality when a few days later they said it was being shipped.
But those fears were unfounded. It's a wonderful bargain at twice the price (which, since it was half off, was the normal price
). It's pleated to the sett very nicely, very cleanly, too. I gave it a thorough once-over and everything is lined up very nicely. It's heavy enough that you don't need a kilt pin but light enough that it's not like you're walking around with a lead skirt or anything. The colors are a tad brighter than I was ready for, but they look really nice.
I'm especially pleased about the tartan itself - the variety of colors in it make it very easy to match up hose and shirts with. I have a pair of the gold knee-length Blaxnit hose that someone called our attention to a few months ago and they look perfect with the kilt. I think it'll actually look better with brown sporran and belt than black, and unfortunately I don't have a brown sporran yet, but that'll have to be my next purchase.
I look forward to being able to wear this kilt this weekend and taking in the oohs and aahs of my fellow revelers!
