5 Flat Belt

I have a guy who wants to buy a used 5 inch flat belt from me. It's about 28 ft long, (14 feet end to end) and the seam is good quality, not the metal clip kind. It's not leather, or rubber, but what seems like almost textured cross pattern. The belt is 7/32 thick. I priced the 4 inch leather at McMaster Carr, and they want $20 per foot... Dang, that would be $600 for that one. So what do you guys feel is a good price for this belt that is in very good condition.
Thank You for your responses.
 
I bought a new 4 inch wide belt, 20 ft total length a couple years ago to run my feed grinder. Got it from HitnMiss.com which is a site that specializes in antiques engines. As I recall, it was around $90 plus the shipping and is a two ply belt. They also have 3 ply belts for heavier duty. These folks can supply any width and length flat belt you need, but not cheap. As to the price of the used belt, make sure it does not have dry rot. I've seen the old used flat belts sell anywhere from $50-150 depending on length and condition. Look on E bay for reference. There are usually some on there.
 
I looked at the website for Hitnmiss. The 5 inch 3 ply flat belting is $4.50 per foot. The 4 ply 5 inch wide is $6.25. The belt I got must have been 3 ply, as they only have 3 and 4 ply belt listed.
 
Thanks Haas. I haven't talked to you for quite a while. I'm no longer in Idaho, moved to Texas, now I'm in central Minnesota... Don't restore tractors too much anymore.
This is a good quality belt, I think a fair price for it is $75. That's what I'll ask for it. Thanks again
