Angry I Hate Napa Premium belts

Has anyone had anyproblems with Napa's premium belts??
I had a shop look at all my pulleys on my '72 402..They said they were almost perfectly lined up..
But i have since had 2 belts thrown and litterally(spelling) come apart, alomst like my alternator stops then moves again..I get no squels or squeeks..but both belts have a smooth surface and then has the belt coming apart. Well when that one goes it rolled the steering and A/C belts..
The steering one was shredded..Which then cause the truck to rapidly over heat. The gauge pegged full. That sucked.But seems to run fine now.
I have never seen belts do this. and I mud race and have thrown belts with my blazer..
I have since put DAYCO belts on, and see what happens..

Just wondering about anyone elses luck with napa belts..

Oh yeah the original belt had no marking but had been on the truck for 3 years and was cracked.. Thats what made me change it in the 1st place..
