AWorley Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I seen their website still says the same thing it said 5 months ago. Has anyone placed any orders from them recently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underwatersniper Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I sent an email 2-3 months ago and never got a reply. Not worth the risk if you ask me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidanverse Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 I did a small test order of two dyes on Sunday and got a confirmation email not too long shortly. No shipping notifications yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buster68 Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 I ordered 2 molds December 11th, received them Monday January 8th. I emailed prior and Betty replied all new orders would ship out in 14 days. Considering it was Christmas time, molds arrived about what she had said taking into account a shutdown period for Christmas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underwatersniper Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 This is encouraging because he has the mold i was wanting. However, since my emails to him I have order 7 new molds. Need to start budgeting for one of these BTS molds i guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpssports Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 He's been posting molds for sale on ebay. I did notice his prices have went quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidanverse Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Can you link one hpssport? Also, buster68, do you remember when you got a shipping confirmation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpssports Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 He don't have one up at the moment. The last one I seen posted was over this past weekend & it was a 2 cavity 702 mold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidanverse Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Is his eBay store the same name as the shop? Just curious so I know how to find him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driftwood Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 They are posting some on e Bay. 2 &4 cavity 702 molds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BHLures Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 BTS seems to be open but he still owes me 4 molds I paid for over a year ago. I send him an email from time to time. I got one reply over that period asking what my order numbers were. That was months ago. Now that Ive said that, watch how quickly this thread gets removed from the one place it holds value.

By "holding value," do you mean a helpful post here on TU? Because you haven't had one of those for months. July 15, 2017 to be exact. Between then and now, it has been nothing but Bob-bashing posts. Last time we had a Bob flare-up, you took something I posted entirely out of context. I sent you a PM apologizing for that (to which I got no response,) but here you are again jumping aboard the Bob-bashing train. As I've said many times before, I have nothing to do with Bob. Never purchased an item from him, nor do I intend to. From all the posts we've had in the past, it's pretty obvious that purchasing ANYTHING from Bob at this point would be incredibly risky. I think AWorley has all the answers he needs, but I will leave this thread open........for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone asks if there are still issues ordering from BTS, that's ok with you. But if I tell them yes there are still issues, you apparently see that as bashing and not helpful? What's not helpful is you attacking me every time I try to be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underwatersniper Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 Last Friday I decided to take the plunge and order one of those molds to see if he was still in business. They’re only pay option was PayPal and I don’t have an account. I sent an email requesting other payment options and they still have not responded. I am thinking instead of trying the basstackle 736 crawl. It looks similar to the Bob’s tackle. 702. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidanverse Posted January 17, 2018 Report Share Posted January 17, 2018 I have an order from the 7th that's just simple plastic dye to test the waters. Money has been pulled and everything, but nothing yet... Fingers are still crossed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you get your molds or a refund some day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buster68 Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I received shipping confirmation on the 6th Mold on the 8th 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidanverse Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Sounds like the problem is just getting it into the box to ship it out unless everything is made to order... Which I hope not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buster68 Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I have read several horror stories about molds not showing up, no answers to emails, etc I myself have never had that problem so I continue to order from Bob. I know him and Betty have had health problems and other problems on top of that. How he runs his business is none of my business, I guess I have just not been done wrong by him and until I do I will continue to buy from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure the guy has to eat and pay the bills so I'm sure he's doing what business he can to stay afloat. He just needs to take care of past orders first imo. I ordered 4 small molds back in Nov 2016. I would think he could practically do them in his sleep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
