Pretty standard service, unless you were buying the whole jacket, sporran, ghillies, hose, kilt, shirt, tie, flashes, belt and buckle, sgian dhub package, in which case they might feel like you deserved the extra mileage of a nice inexpensive hanger/nylon bag to carry it all in. But don't count on it these days. Margins are thin and getting thinner.
My thoughts exactly. My experiences from ordering overseas have been the same, but honestly I epxected my kilt to be shipped in a shipping bag. What I didn't expect was for the postal carrier to wad it up and shove it in the mailbox when he is supposed to bring oversize items to the door.

Times are very tight and will probably only get tighter before things get better.
