The people who recognize the quaility and know what they want would, I think. 
 The ones who want quick and dirty garb who don't care if it's accurate 
wouldn't, of course, but there are plenty of merchants out there catering to them.  
What we need is someone catering to the discerning authenticist of a period 
other than 14th or 15th century who wants accurate garb but either can't or 
doesn't have the time to make it themselves.  It's a niche market; I don't think 
you could ever make a living off it it, but it could bring in a tidy side sum.
