    Another Shout Out to a Mold Maker - NOE.

    I needed a 285g mold for my 9.3x62. Saw that NOE had one listed on Sunday night - the 368-285 GC 3 cav aluminum. Bought it Sunday night, and just came home a little ago while to find it in my mailbox. Thank you, NOE.

    I have been casting for 60 years and have accumulated way too many molds of all makes over the years, but NOE is ow my "go to" when I need a new mold. For some reason, they just seem to multiply in my mold storage. in fact, I just ordered another one yesterday for a "project" I'm playing with.

    I talked with Al the other day as he called me about an order i placed - he's a fine gentleman to deal with and they are working very hard to keep up with all the things facing small businesses today - supply issues, etc. U;ve never been disappointed in any mold I have purchased from them and we are blessed to have mould makers like him and others.

    I agree with BBB 100% ! Al is a great guy to deal with, a real straight shooter . Great molds at a fair price. Never had an issue with anything I’ve purchased from NOE

    I recently bought a 326-221-RN-Gc from NOE.
    I just recently got around to casting with it.
    I find NOEs moulds to second only to H&G.
    They are a pleasure to cast with.

    I don't get it. I started trying to contact him after I had been waiting over a month on an "in stock" order. Three days short of two months I doubled down calling, emailing to two different email addresses (the official one and one I found here), and posted on this forum about my issues. The same day I did that, my order status was changed to "completed." A few days later my order arrived, minus one of the four items in the order. That was a couple of weeks ago, and I still have never gotten any response whatsoever to any of my attempts at communication.

    This was my third order from NOE. The first two were no problem at all, but this one has soured me on buying from him. I really believe that after two months, I have a right to expect some kind of communication. The complete lack of any response does send me a message of sorts, though: "I don't want your business."
