    I'm sad to see that the Argyll jacket with the waistcoat is not the same that they show on the website (which I assume means it's different than the one Graham got). I really liked that style, as I hadn't seen it anywhere else online.

    Back to the drawing board, I guess...

    Unhappy Im Having the same problem

    Hi

    I too am having a nightmare getting scottish kilts to responde to emails!! I ordered my first kilt approx five weeks ago and heard nothing at all but my credit card was charged. I rang on monday to find out what was going on and was told it would be here by the end of the week. It hasn't appeared! just phoned now and apparently it is sitting on the desk to be sent this pm!!! is it just me or is that a tad conveniant!! I am starting to panic that a) its never going to appear. B) the size will be totally wrong or c) the quality will match up with the service (i.e. shocking). Has anyone else ordered a prince charlie outfit from them so would have an idea about the quality. Its an 8yard 16oz kilt for my wedding and I have also ordered a matching plaid for my wedding so it needs to be right.

    ps. sorry about my shocking spelling

    I had a rough time getting them to respond to emails, but finally, Mr. McSweeney sent me the email that my Argyle outfit was on the way, and a week later I had it.

    Be patient, man, it will turn up.

    Viking Technology myriad Web sites

    I hate to sound like a broken record, but there are other merchants within Scotland and without who are more responsive. Someone said earlier in this thread that all merchants sometimes have problems, and that's true; but the various names under which Viking Technlogy does business experience far more than their fair share. The quality of their products and their service is just plain poor far too often.

    Jst so you know, the following Web sites are all fronts for Viking Technology, Inc.:
    Scottish Shopper (http://www.scottishshopper.com/)
    Irish Kilts (http://www.irishkilts.net/)

    Tartan Web (http://www.tartanweb.com/)
    Gifts-Scotland (http://www.gifts-scotland.com/)

    I'll stop going on about Viking now. Fair warning given though.

    Thank you,
    Scott Gimore

    I ordered a jacket/waistcoat. 8 yard 16 oz wool kilt, and dress sporran from Scottishkilts and their affiliates, and I have always been completely satisfied. Gealic Themes seems to produce a large number of items sold in most Scottish shops (online and physical). I know that all the kilt hose I have purchased locally have been Gealic Themes. I had an issue with communication when I first ordered, but David was a big help and has always responded to my questions when he wasn't run off his feet with business.

    I have been perfectly satisfied with orders from some of the websites in Mr. Gilmore's list.
