I was hoping this whole mess had been cleaned up and you were a happy camper. Seems that the owner just doesn't care, oh well I will take my money to rcbs and others, I don't need the hassles you have had to put up with.
I have no question that you are stating your side of the issue and what Redding has told you and that is good enough for me.
thanks for keeping us informed and I for one am done with Redding.

For those interested but don't want to re-read a lengthy thread here is post #51 dated Feb 3, 09 (page 3) that concerns the email from Redding. The entire email Redding sent regarding this matter had very little to no truth in it. It was one outright lie after another and was written to slander me.
That simple fact says a great deal about the lack of integrity at Redding. Slander a customer rather than admit a problem . . . Simply amazing.

first off i would like to thank cbrick after reading all 10 pages of this thread for what seems to me to be complete honesty in what is just an all around bad deal .. being new to this forum ive asked for advice on boolit molds and such and have had the saeco molds recomended quite often now i am glad i cheaped out an bought a couple lee molds for my sharps i think ill save my money to spend elswhere ... now heres something i dont understand whats this " willbird" charecters stake in this whole problem im not seeing a reason for his whole attitude towards cbricks problem his remarks make me ashamed of the fact that he lives in the same state as me .. anyway thanks to cbrick ill never make the mistake of giving redding a single penny .. thanks
Be amazed all you like, it's very difficult to save emails or anything else from a crashed hard drive.
The %^&* from Redding is a bold faced liar, he is certainly no gentleman (gentelmen have integrity). The part of this that seems to be over your head willbird is that he told YOU (yes you, with no standing in any of this) he would give me a refund and wanted to see the moulds. He told ME the exact opposite. Think real hard, maybe you can see a difference there.
What are you smoking? Recover the cost of the moulds? How do you propose I accomplish that when Redding said do not return them? Take my money back? You are smoking something, Redding offered me nothing, no recourse whatsoever on the moulds or anything else. Everything in the email to you from Robin Sharpless that you take as gospel was an outright lie.
Your only stake in this entire thing is reading this thread and then sending Redding an email about it. Redding answered that email with a page full of lies in an attempt to slander me. That gives you no standing to call me a liar. You had zero part in lengthy phone calls with Redding and have no clue what your talking about.
To say that your posts are offensive is putting it mildly.
Ax to grind my heiny.

And I sent that email to Redding in the first place because I felt that if they screwed you, they should make it right.
What I have said here might be offensive to YOU because it is not in complete agreement with everything you say. As I said the email was sent by PM, which is stored on the server HERE not on your computer. So for it to be gone you DELETED it, and if you deleted it, it was not very important to you....was it ??

Both ends WHAT a player
Guys,
Is there any reason to continue beating this up? You have both had ample say and it is obvious that neither will ever agree. Can we just agree that we disagree and let it go?

My experience with Redding over the decades has been very positive. I've had the occasional problem with a product but I returned them and they were replaced. I couldn't be happier. Actually I don't know of a single major manufacturer that hasn't treated me very well and, as a customer, I couldn't be less important to them. So I think that all these firms do an excellent job.
My concern isn't the manufacturers. I have a very high regard for all of them. My concern is this thread. Whatever the truth might be, I think that continuing this discussion makes us, all of us, look rather bad.
This horse is long dead, lets beat it some more.
