Bank sinker order

Still nothing. The Lead Bandit guy assured me last Thursday that my order had shipped and I would have my weights by Sat or Monday at the latest.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS BUSINESS is my recommendation.

I must have caught him on a good day. Sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you sharing it with everyone.

I have placed multiple orders to LeadBandit and had nothing but a very positive experience, every time. Even had an issue with missing items on a big order and it was corrected literally within minutes of me opening the package, seeing the mistake and emailing him notifing him of the issue.

I’ve left More than 5 voicemails.
I’ve left more than 5 emails.
Zero response from any of it. The only response I got from him was after It was recommended to contact him on The Hull Truth. He responded with his “As of today your order has shipped and you should get it on Sat or Monday at the latest.” Today is Wednesday and I still don’t have my order. I don’t lie to my customer and don’t appreciate a vendor lying to me. His trial run with a $75 order to see what he is like is not going well for him. Between myself and the other guides at my marina we spend over $1000 a year on lead. Needless to say, Lead-Bandit will never get another dime from me.
I suggested to him on THT that if he is behind on orders then don’t charge peoples cards until he is working on their order. Had he not charged my card, on Feb. 9th, I wouldn’t be able to say anything except, I haven’t heard from the guy. Since I have been charged already I have every right to call him out.

Order placed on Feb 9th
Order received on March 14th.
Item quality is decent. Ordered 5 different sizes of egg weights, everything came in one bag. Poorest customer service I’ve experienced in a good while. Won’t be doing business with this guy again.

I invested in six molds three years ago and it has really paid for itself many times over! Just wish I had started making my own sinkers 30 years ago!:smiley:

Being on the water is a blessing, catching fish is a bonus!

“Come follow me.” Jesus said “I will make you a fisher of men.”
Matthew 4:19

I have ZERO interest in pouring my own lead. I got about 500 small sized egg sinkers for $70. I’m good with that. If I didn’t generate money when fishing I may feel different. I do hate paying retail for anything though. I got worked pretty good the last time at the tackle shop on lead but they had what I wanted when I needed it.

Just place my summer order with ACE SINKERS. Hopefully this will be a smooth transaction unlike the lead bandit guy.

I’m interested to hear how he does. I’m going to place my summer lead order with him soon. I bet he’s loving all the BS that Lead Bandit is pulled.
