I have had good luck with W&C - have you tried calling and talking with Matt Bressler?  He should be able to take care of you.

I actually did contact Matt while trying to solve this.  They said they are 30 + days behind on their harness so I'll have to wait to direct order.  I found out that they do not have a minimum order which is nice.

On another note, the supplier I purchased from is going to send another piece out in the end.   It took a bit of back and forth and a few days but it's now resolved.

It can happen even to the best suppliers, as long as it doesn't happen too often and they help out when it does, it's fine.

If it was too much trouble to replace I'd make a toolbox out of it :)

Hopefully it won't happen again!  So far the odds haven't been great with this particular supplier but finding a solution does go a long way and they seem to be willing.  Tool holding is a great idea, thanks for that!

Order direct from W&C. I order a lot of leather from them and never seen anything like that.  

Also, you can't bet on consistency until you start ordering sides.  Ordering by Square foot is always a bit of a crap shoot.  One order might be 100% usable.  Then next 30% belly and unusable.  

And W&C is pretty backed up.  I'm waiting on a couple sides the I need to complete my order with them.  Ordered 2 weeks ago thinking I had enough time since I just started one of the sides.  Then orders went nuts, they are behind, and I'm out of a leather weight I have to have.  Everyone in the industry is having supply issue as far as I can tell.  I've had to change hardware for some of my stuff too because my normal stuff is always back ordered.  Crazy times.

Good to know the consistency from W&C direct is good.  Thanks for the info.  Yea, it seems like a lot of suppliers are seriously backed up.  Crazy times indeed!
