Default where to buy prong collar

ahhh-im going out of my mind. i was going to get the prong from ray allen-but i need extra links, a leash and a tab and i don't like their tabs and the links they are charging (what i think) is a lot (i think i've seen it cheaper).
elite canine doesn't have the size i want-neither does active dogs or sport dogs.

does anyone know of a good website where i can get a decent leather leash, a leather tab and a 2.25 prong collar and buy extra links???
am i asking too much?

**i should note i am having a hard time finding the stainless steel HS prong collar in 2.25**

Elite K9? If you can't find what you need on the site, call them. I've seen some things from them that aren't listed on the site.

Think they still have them.

Go for quality, like Herm Sprenger.

they do have them (they stopped selling the quick release)...they are $5 more than everywhere else. i will go look at the leashes/tabs and decide from there.
might call elite-they don't carry anything smaller than a 3.22

ahh. now i am getting irratated. leerburg wants $30 for what i've seen about $27 elsewhere...which i don't mind spending alittle extra because they have everything i need...but how come the LENGTH varies on websites?? do they all come with the same amount of links?? or is leerburg charging MORE for LESS links?? they claim their 2.25 fits a 13'' neck (my dog's is around 17) other websites say the 2.24 fits up to 14'' and i've seen another one that says 15''. what's up with this?? should i just get the 3mm?

If it is the old quick release with the french snap good riddance much easier to put on the standard one.

There is a newer one with a nylon quick release that is really nice (a teammate has one)

I've never heard any of those brands. I bought mine at Petsmart for about $20. Denver's been using his old one from 4 months to 9 months, no rust, no snapping, no bending. Strong and works well. At 10 months I bought another one with bigger prongs. At 11 months I had to buy extra single prongs to add - also from Petsmart. Cheap at about $3 for 2-3 prongs. Never had a problem with these prong collars or their strength or durability. From what I'm reading his is standard over the head type. I don't trust quick release. This is the only collar Denver wears.
