Bank sinker order

Some things are easier to just pay for in life. Lead sinkers are on that list for me. Pouring my own sinkers is Just like tournament redfishing, I’ve done it before, been succesfull, but don’t care to do it again.

Sorry for your situation Fritzie. My order, like yours, took slightly longer than the advertised shipping and processing. I did speak with “Patrick” several times over the delay. In the end, I received the 300lbs or so about 10 days later than I thought. Myself and others were satisfied with the product and the price was exceptional, especially after matching it off of Ebay.

Still no word from them. Voicemail box is full and can’t take any more messages so I guess I’m not the only one looking for my order.

Found a new ebay supplier that will get my bulk order for catching sharks with this summer

Hello, We can do Sizes 3, 4 and 5 OZ at 100 each and 60 of the 5’s for $165 including shipping. I am sorry we don’t have the 2oz flat bank mold yet. If you decide to take the offer all you need to do is pay the invoice. Thank you, Connie

What is 3,4,and 5s at 100 each and 60 of the 5s mean?
100- 3oz
100-4oz
100-5oz
60-5oz?
Total-165?
Remember, I’m still learning to tie my shoes, netboy.

Yes, 1500 ounces for $165. Math can be tough sometimes.

Writing can be tough sometimes, too. Why would you reference 5 oz. twice?

I will ask Connie why she dd that. The additional 60 5oz sinkers were an add on for duck decoys

That’s an incredible price. Better stock up while you can as raw market price for soft lead is nearly double what she is charging. Good score and good luck in the upcoming season.

Hey Capt Ron, we’ll be pouring lead next door to EWT on our trip in May, last two weeks. You are welcomed to join us! Bring your old lead if you are interested! Capt Buddy B

Cool. I’ve got several thousand pounds of old bucktail heads that you guys could use. I’ve got most everything I need but would be happy to help you guys get stocked up.

Thanks! I’ll let you know what day we decide to have a lead melting party! I would like for you to meet my crew! Capt Buddy B

If some actual sense can be brought to this thread, can these sinkers be purchased still…? In higher weights for bottom fishing…10/16 oz…?

You will have to PM Fritz as to his supplier. I’m sure they can do most any size, and at that price, you need to get all you think you will use for several years as that price won’t last.

The lead-bandit company isn't very reliable as far as I can tell. In my business if a customer calls me 3-5 times and also sends me email in the same numbers, and I don't call them back, they move on to another supplier. Maybe I need to start charging them first and then they will have to just wait until I get around to filling their order, regardless if I make the claims that orders are filled within 3 days of payment and you will have your items a week after that.

NO response. I sent him my last email just now stating that if I don’t get a response or my product by the end of the week I’m turning it over to paypal for a refund. Really slack customer service. I can only hope that nothing bad has happened to the owner of the company. No other reason for the lack of communication.

Comment on one of his threads on THT. That’s the only way I have been able to get him when needed. Good luck

Done. Can’t believe I’ve been a member of THT since 2003 and only have 5 posts on that site.
I did get a response from an email I sent yesterday but it was spam that contained a virus.

As soon as I did that my order is supposedly being shipped today. There is another lead seller on THT that has a great price and good customer service skills.
