Best Belts Delivery Time?

[cloudguy]

I ordered a plain, black belt from Best Belts 7 weeks ago today. I called them 2 weeks ago and asked about the status and they said it was in production. Still have not received a shipment confirmation.

Has anyone else ordered recently? The longest time I have seen posted for delivery on any forum is about 7 weeks, to countries outside the US. I live in the next state over from where they are located.....

I also see plenty of praise all around about the communication process for the order. I emailed them more than 2 weeks ago and received no response. I was only by sheer luck able to get them on the phone 2 weeks ago. I called literally 4-5 times in a row over the same hour until they picked up the phone. Almost every time I try to call I either get a perpetual busy signal on many consecutive attempts over a few hours, or it goes to voicemail.

I could have (and probably should have at this point) ordered an Inzer on Amazon and had it in 3 days.

Can anyone else provide recent feedback? I want to believe the hype about how great the belt will be when I finally get it, but I am pushing 2 months now waiting for this thing. Time lost not hitting my potential on squats and deads while I use a cheap, old belt I got for free from someone.

I think mine came in 8-10 weeks and I got shipping confirmation the week after it arrived.

Its worth the wait. I just had to downsize my lifting belt and bought a Rogue Ohio belt for about the same price as my best belts belt, the Best Belts belt is WAY higher quality (finished better, heavier duty rivets, 4 rows of stitching instead of 2, better buckle, burnished edges etc etc) . You will love it when it gets there...I wish I would have ordered another one from there.

First time I ordered from them in 2011 took less than a week

Second time in early 2017 was around 10 weeks. But IIRC they had equipment issues and it was a real busy time for them

But as others have said, it's worth the wait....it is an awesome belt, much better than an Inzer (and I liked my Inzer)

Mine took about 4 weeks. It was worth the wait tough.

Need to relax buddy. I don't have a Best belt, but everything custom I've ordered, weight equipment, car accessories, guns have all been worth the wait.

"Time lost not hitting my potential on squats and deads while I use a cheap, old belt I got for free from someone" Seriously? You should have just stopped using a belt for these two months. Then when you went back to the belt you really would see some gains.

mine was 6 weeks . Ordered in Dec 2017 and received on in Feb. They had phone issues and probably still have.

They are family run business probably does not have good old PBX.

Anyway, as per not hitting PR's due to lack of belt really, actually this should be opposite and should be to your benefit. Unless you are planning to compete with the belt like right now.

Instant gratification does not warranty results.. just saying..

About 8-weeks... don't worry, you'll get it
