    Maybe try TK Maxx.
    Or even TJ HUGHES if you have a nearby store.
  • Got mine in Turkey , they had thousands in the local market two for £5 , come to think of it they had thousands of other belts , hope there not fake !!

  • TK Maxx sounds like your best bet, or try eBay, but beware of anything not being shipped from the UK.

    eBay is full to bursting with fake goods so if you find any just report them and move on to the next item.

    I don't understand why people buy fake items at all. If you can't afford the real thing, save up for it as you will appreciate it more then. Most of these fake goods are cheap and nasty and won't last you 5 minutes. And that is not just for clothes etc.

    £50 is rather reasonable for a genuine Diesel belt, although with a bit of hunting you should be able to get what you are after for maybe £35-ish. Do you know which belt it is exactly?

    Buy the real deal, you don't always have to pay full whack for it.
