Well COOL!
So I won this sporran on ebay for $27.50.
I was looking for a semi dress and this spotted my eye for what I wanted. I asked the seller the origin, and he replied that it was indeed made in Scotland. I had no real idea of the value. Then I got a J. Higgins catalog in the mail and found the value to be $90, and other sites are selling it for over $100 
I love it when that happens.

The seller was "masterpiper2006" with a green star rating of 456. One invalid non-delivery complaint and two unanswered in 12 months.
He/she doesn't have anything for sale at the moment, but if I recall correctly he/she had other Highland related items that did not raise any flags like they were not authentic.

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Just goes to show what living a virtuous life can do.  It is buys like that which keep me coming back to E-bay.
Gland you got a good buy there!
