30 Pullups isn't a walk in the park by any means, but its a good way to get your back nice and warm!
Also - i wear them on squat/dead singles only, or if i'm in a comp i wear one pretty much constantly. They make absolutely zero difference to the weight i can lift but they will stop your lower back rounding somewhat.
More useful on the squat than the deadlift really, since you should be breathing into your belly and using valsalva (sp?) on squats anyway your belly will push into the belt and help support your back and keep you tight.
Half of it is a mental thing, i'm sure. I know people who use it for heavy events like log press and conan's wheel, too.
Literally, get them from anywhere so long as they're heavy duty looking.

Pullum Sports for Weightlifting and Strongman Gym Equipment
Are both good sites. The York leather ones are good too, and most places sell them.
