Bought this about a week ago, and it's already falling apart!!?
It's a western belt, you know for belt buckles and stuffs. It was $80 dollars! And two of the rhinestones on it have fallen off! The only problem is... I'm real good friends with the owners, employees, and everyone who works there... So I don't wanna go in and complain, you now? Is there anyways to sew them back on? They had these little holder that stuck into the belt, so when one rhinestone comes out so does it holder... Please help! Thanks!

I know nothing about fixing those. But you should go and tell them about it. They may be ambarrassed about it seeming like shoddy quality. I would definitely let them know. There are plenty of polite kind ways to bring it up.

Good luck!
If you're good friends with the owners, employees, etc...then you should feel comfortable enough to show them the belt. Also, I'll bet they'd want to know, since you're not the only one buying the belt.

If they're buying crappy stuff from the manufacturer, that shows badly upon their store. If it was my store, I'd definitely want to know so I could speak to the manufacturer or maybe even switch manufactures.

Tell them, don't hide it.

If they want to do good business and be known for selling quality stuff, they'll want to know and take care of shoddy material that comes to their store.
Go and tell them, it is only fair to do so as their product is sub-standard and I am sure that they would want to know,
$ 80 that's a lot just for a belt why not get some thing that's cheaper that you can make your self ?
Bring it back. They should want to know that the belt is junk. The problem is that all the belts, boots, etc are no longer made in the USA, they're made in China and it's all total crap. I'm really angry about it, as everyone is supposedly trying to create more jobs here, but all our manufacturing is now done over in China or somewhere in Korea, or Taiwan. But not here, thanks to the unions and the great EPA who shut down almost all of the leather tanneries and the metal foundries, so hundreds of thousands of people lost jobs. Haven't you noticed that all the hardware on the new halters rusts out in 6 months? And our boots that used to last for a year or more are falling apart in 6 months, too. So why doesn't the government bring jobs back here by making a friendly environment for businesses to reopen? By limiting unions and getting rid of the EPA. I have friends who own tack shops and know the Hamilton Halter people, so they are the ones who told me all this. They're mad about it too, but no one is doing anything about it. Just letting people lose their jobs and end up on welfare or permanent unemployment.
