I ordered some lube from LBT , using this address:
LBT
78592 Hwy 2
MOYIE SPRINGS,ID

Is this a current address?
I have heard nothing from them, and my check has not been cashed. It has been over 2 weeks.
It has been a while since I ordered from them, just wondering if address has changed
Thanks

That is the current address.
Sometimes it takes Veral a while to get an order out, be patient.

I mailed cash in for his Jacketed Performance book back in February and haven't heard anything from LBT since then. There seem to be a lot of people on this board who will defend him ("just be patient, he's old," etc.). I don't think it's too much to expect to send a quick email if you're going to take 5+ months to ship a paper booklet after it's paid for.

I'd be more understanding if I ordered a custom mold and he was backed up on requests. Those molds take time to make. Printing out a booklet and putting it in the mailbox should under no circumstances take 6 months. If he's printing it to begin with he must have a digital file somewhere. Emailing that to me would take even less time. I don't expect I'll ever receive my book or any response from LBT, and will not be doing business with Mr. Smith in the future.

Veral has never been in a hurry, but that is way to long. I really hope he is ok... I have not ordered from him in some years, but love his moulds and lube worked out pretty well.

Maybe he had to wait for them to be printed, just like his molds you have to wait 'till they're ready.

I ordered and received a couple earlier this year. Pretty sure I had the molds in hand before the check had been deposited on his end.

Thanks for the responses.
I’m not in a big hurry. I was just wondering if I had the correct address when I saw that my check had not cleared the bank. Plus, sometimes the USPS is slow in delivering mail!:grin:
I mailed a letter from here in SC to TN, and it took 7 days to get there!

Haven't had dealings with Veral in over twenty-twenty five years. Corresponding back and forth we got a revolver chamber lapping procedure put together using emery paper taped to a dowel rod that I used on a tight .41.
Back then he made me a fearsome small game wacker WFN 110 grainer for the Model 1892 French officers revolver.
That boolit deserves a rifle but there's always been something else needs doing.
