BUYERS BEWARE
A little disclaimer, I have no malice intent towards a individual trying to sell whats advertised, but these don't came as advertised.
I first enquired about a 1k converted brass from laxman, with a quick reply he indicated they would cost more than advertised, cheeky. Then indicated about a weeks worth of lead time, no problem, one week later I hadn't heard anything so I had followed up with him. Laxman indicated another week would be required, for what im not sure.
Out of nowhere I was reimbursed a partial amount and the cost per round went up a negligible amount yes but yet again, cheeky. Instead of the 1k we had a verbal agreement on i ended up getting 635 pieces of garbage.
They were manufactured below SAAMI specifications. They were tumbled with the pimers in once it seems, and were not swaged so now I have to deal with a ton of crimps!
I would have been better off dealing with an honest person/company as now I'm pressed to pyrchase a swagger if I want to use this brass. They were oxidized from a lack of drying after a wet tumble that left less than satisfactory surface finishes. After I tumbled in a corncob media they looked adequate..
After trying to contact the gentleman almost two weeks ago, about possibly purchasing un preped brass from him, no returns or reimbursement, just a opportunity to buy brass i could make right... no response. It appears ive been ghosted
I am writing this in hope to use this platform as intended, leaving a honest review of the products advertised herein. I am less than pleased but atleast he didnt just take my money right. Well this is the kind of service one may expect, and I hope he doesn't represent the lot of you.
Best of luck,
Quaf

To further expand on just what im talking about in regards to my claims above, please see the images of the brass received. I had tumbled some of that same brass for a clear cross examination.
