Lee RANT!

[Manyirons]

Called Lee today, in respect to the Ruger Old Army 220 Grain Hollow-Point that is still listed on the web site.

Politely asked if it would be possible to explain why the mold is still listed, additionally, if one might be oredered or custom built.

SILLY ME for politely asking!!!

Woman one telephone made no effort to conceal her utter comtempt for anyone bothering her or requesting anything out of the ordinary and she; "Owed me no explanation why the mold was still listed" and if i wanted one; " $150.00 up front AND cost of the mold!!!"

Any money i might have spent on Lee products for rest of my life is staying firmly in my pocket!

Well, there's one employee that sounds like needs firing.

I once worked with a woman like that - 365 periods a year!
I would call back and speak to a manager and tell them. They can't fix it if no body tells them it's broken.

Am writing them, on third draft, probably sixth before polite enough to send!

Save the web page to include as evidence, now for a nice firm reasonable non profane letter!

Also looking at NEI and Mountain Molds websites! Going to spend money, buy quality!

Isn't NEI the one that will make a mold to order for a REASONABLE price? I don't remember, but one of the companies will one off you a mold and it's not a C note.

Yep! And friendly about it too!

I have NEVER had that kind of a problem with Lee Precision. I would definitely get through to someone higher in the organization with your complaint.

I have had some of my questions and comments over the years answered by one or another Mr. Lee, himself. In fact, I have a comment and suggestion going to him right now.

wow, that sure beats the 150 dollars up front! I'm sure you still plan on following through with the letter, any chance of posting it after your last revision? (and maybe post the first draft if it is THR safe )

FIRST draft wasn't ANYWHERE safe! Last one will try to post as a file, see if it works!

Now they have a note next to that mold that say's in RED letters "Discontinued"! That wasn't there when I copied the link for you.

[Beartracker]

Manyirons, Are you saying that Track of the Wolf did have one to sell you??

Glad to help, Just hope you can getb at least one. Now I'm wondering why they are discontinueing it. Sure seems popular to me.

Nah, would do it with mind power alone! (O.K. so it would be a REALLY small hollow point then!)

 

[Beartracker]

Lol,

Mike,

I told you a long time ago to go to bosesguns. I told you the price of their Lee stuff, you shoulda listened.

Good people, good service, shipped real quick, and the prices are less than any other place I have found.

Happy with all I have got from them.

Cheers,

George
