Don't overlook the statement, "Order it today and it will ship by September 30th, 2013.
Perhaps they're accumulating orders and sending batches overseas for production. Because a 6-month delay certainly doesn't suggest shipping from stock.

hmm... oopsy... had to read the fine print... I was too excited. According to their FB page it looks like they are pre-ordering for full time stocking? It dosent say about Order now or never again like it did last year...

Great news! Hopefully I will order one before the month ends, money a bit tight this month, too many bills. However the offer ends this month so I think I will have to find the funds somehow. Now- What colour?

No, but you could have it drop shipped through me.

What's drop shipping?
How does it work?

Actually, drop shipping is when a seller has the manufacturer or their supplier ship the item that is ordered. What is referred to here really comes (I think it's at least a reasonable approximation) under the heading of freight forwarding - when something is shipped to one place for one reason or another, and then the intermediary receiver sends it to the final recipient. Seems like there is a better term I'm not calling to mind right now though.

Hi there. I am an occasional passer-by who found my way back here when checking if the Tactical Kilt was likely to be on the market again.
Not good news - I emailed them looking at shipping possibilities to the UK, and was emailed this morning to say they are not shipping internationally (other than to APO/FPO US military addresses). I thought it would be worth passing this on to save a flurry of emails to them getting the same answer!
Big shame, because it looks a brilliant and well-priced product!
All the best

Perhaps you could find someone to reship them to you.

If any producer has the wish to sell anything, why should the purchaser feel obliged to "pressure" them to do the business?
