1 1/2" Antique Nickel Plated Napa Buckle

Product is fine, and fairly priced but the shipping is over the top expensive. Has turned me off ordering on-line.

2/18/22 Update: I bought in August of 2020. It appears to be very strong, but it has already broken. Years ago when I bought l bought belts, they lasted for many years, especially any belts I owned which were wide and had a heavy buckle, such as this. I guess inferior metal is used these days. Price was cheap, so I didn't knock it to one star, because I got over a year for cheap, but I'd rather pay a little more for many years of use! 8/24/2020 I'm rewriting my review. I was very disappointed because I couldn't put it in my belt which had it's original sown-in belt buckle break. I expected a piece that would go through one side of the buckle, then through the belt, and screw in the other side of the buckle. But upon intensive searching on Amazon, I couldn't find anything of that nature. I felt like rating it a 1, because it gave no indication that this could not be done. But since I could find none that do this, I suppose it's just what would be expected. I expected to be able to put it in my sown belt (as opposed to snaps to hold the buckle in), but cannot. Now I've found a work-around: Amazon "Tandy Leather Screw Post Open Back 1/8" (0,3 cm) Black Plate 10/pk 1296-04" is around $7, and solves this problem. Just ordered them. I can cut the threads out, then use these fasteners, and it should work just fine. (Others have done the same, as I found out in various fastener reviews.) Since there is a solution, and I've looked at many other buckles, this one seems as good as any, better than most, and a much better price than most. As such it deserves 5 stars. (Originally I was going to rate it much lower, since it seemed unusable to me, and I expected it to be used on my kind of belt.) I have another identical belt (different color) that needs to be fixed, and for the same reason. That "Screw Post Open Back..." is a 10-pack, so it's enough to fix both belts with plenty left over, so my belt other belt can be fixed for the outstanding price of this buckle alone.

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

Good looking buckle. Seems durable. Shipping was quick. Item was as described.

it's good and fits!
