Thanks for the replies folks, I may try getting some shipped from across the water if I can make the money work out. 

I guess the bottom line is that there isn't a 'standard' grading and we all do it our own way. That's fine by me as I usually know what I want, I was just curious after a bad experience (my first ever) with a large  leatheronline company in Italy.

Ps. I enjoy moking around these forums and I'm surprised there aren't more people involved, I've seen a few post about the inevitable trollish types but haven't seen or heard anything bad here at all.

One of the nice things about working with leather is that you meet or get in touch with such a wide variety of people. Long may it continue!!  :rockon:

I’ve bought leather from Tandy, Metropolitan from Uk, Buyleatheronline from Italy and some from a small shop in Dublin Ireland.

What I bought in Ireland I was happy with because I was able to handle the product before buying. The leather from Tandy wasn’t finished very well at all. I bought black dyed bridle leather in two thicknesses from Metropolitan and both thicknesses were wrong and the black dye never stops rubbing off. I received my second purchase from buyleatheronline today and each time I was completely happy with the leather. 

I also purchased a lot of different types of leather from a shoe factory a few months ago and was able to see what I was buying first so I am very happy with that also.

By the sounds of it... you bought from buyleatheronline and weren’t happy?
