That's not a terribly outlandish price IF the leather looks like the picture.  Does cause me concern that on that same page it shows H.O. "B" grade side at $234 .. which is about $40 above what it costs at H.O.  But, maybe not related.

So far, and I remain skeptical from my own experience with crap leather, both blanks I've bought for belts have been ok with a nice tight flesh side. I lined one anyway and plan to line the other since I like the lined one so much thus far. Regarding the price of a H.O. side, I won't buy it at that price, I just wait for a sale or find another point of supply.

Thanks for all the replys.  I do have the ability to skive and punch holes for the buckle slot and adjustment slots.  I just want a quick belt so Ill probably get a Tandy belt blank in the interim while I look at some of the recommended links.  I'm also gonna try and lose a belt size or two in the time being because it seems like the smaller belt will make it easier to find.

If you opt for Tandy, you need to pick it onsite. Tandy isn't afraid to ship you some fuzzy flesh side crap sometimes. You likely know all this but just be cautious. You could always line it also and while it won't fix the stability of the leather, it can hide the fuzz.
