I think we are pretty much on line, after all. There is nothing wrong with paying a high price for something you really go for. I do it myself, as I wrote.
My point is, however, that no one should feel shameful when buying am even thrifty kilt off the rack - or anything else for that matter - if that is what he thinks he will or can offer right away. Saving up is good but it could be a long term process with many obstacles delaying the purchase.
And the difference between an expensive and a cheap kilt might not be that big – looked at from a distance of several meters.
Can you tell if my watch is approximately a $100, a $1.000 or a $3.000 one? Unless you are interested in watches I'm pretty much sure you cannot. You don't need to answer.
Is my kilt a $100, a $300 one?
