    Will you try to ship them to a country where they are illegal to own?
    If yes,,,,,, I will buy them all.
    Don't be too surprised if it gets listed again in a few days.

    Look at my thread, Crazy People on Ebay, this forum, and some of the posts. Must be something someone just cannot live without. And the beat goes one--there are still molds going for $300+, for whatever reason. Let's see, what was I thinking? Oh, yeah, Mihec, NOE, Magma, Ballisticast, guess I'm just too dumb to realize the true value of something. Oh well, Mama never said I was the sharpest knife in the drawer.

    About 5 times the 'reasonable' price.

    If it was easy, anybody could do it.

    I try not to worry about what others may want to pay for an item, I do a lot of trading on eBay and never buy anything for more than I think it's worth. That said, it will be interesting to see if the seller gets paid or if this was a whoops bid. The mold is no big deal, you could buy a new 358156 and have it modified for less than half of what was paid. The listing has an error, too, it casts 155 grains as a SOLID and of course will cast less as a HP.

    I was kidding Tony.
    Some places would probably hang you if you owned a mold.
    I bet there are people there that would try to find a Dumb American that might try sending them one.

    Takes two to bid things up. Must be the result of a "pizzen contest".

    Some people you just cant "teach", hats off to the marketing genius who sold it though. I particulary like the wire-wheel fresh finish, sure to make it eye-candy. I gotta look around, I am sure to have some of these $300 moulds somewhere.

    $455 for a mold? Not in this lifetime! When that site says, "you've been outbid!", I'm gonna say "So what?"....lol.

    I have two of those molds. Both available for 399.99 and I will pay shipping, but someone is getting a VINTAGE set of molds at rock bottom prices. Really, I am cutting my own throat. I am only offering this because you are all family.

    I also sell bridges.
    I came into this world kicking, screaming, and covered in someone elses blood. I plan to go out the same way.
