So when hardware is listed as "nickel plated" does that mean plated brass, plated die cast, or....? Depends on who you buy from?

Always ask what the base metal is before making a purchase. I like good solid brass or nickle plated brass buckles and have had no problems to date - but that is just me! I wouldn't touch poor quality buckles at any price... My customers are worth a lot more to me if they come back for another belt/harness or whatever. I have just (last weekend) made a belt for a guy who bought his last one from me more than twenty five years ago. We re-used the brass buckle...
