This is more of a positive review about the seller than the belt itself. I had a NoNickel.com seller. The belt buckle was broken and started to deform after 3 months. I messaged the seller (NoNickel) and he sold me a brand new stainless steel buckle belt at a 50% discount. They also sent me a return envelope and prepaid shipping label to send the defective belt back so they could put a new stainless steel buckle on it free of charge. I just received the refurbished unit in the mail and am very satisfied. Thank you NoNickel for the excellent customer service. Earnings + for this small business!
