I need to make this perfectly clear today, We have nothing to do with that "other place". We have NO inside information about the day to day operations there. But, word travels fast inside this business, among the group of suppliers. Add to that, dealing daily with so many of you..... we get bits and pieces as well.
Now, the facts are clear and factual. Making claims of being the "New Pourette" then going down the same road they did, isn't very assuring. Claiming to have the "entire line of Pourette molds" and then several years later, they are still not to be found or seen on that website. I can point to the claim on the website of the entire line of "Art Deco" molds.... they were to be on the site by 2009. Is it 2009 yet?
Pourette had some other issues, like lawsuits, from the Owner (now former owner) of the Silicone Molds we now own. I suppose that won’t be happening to us, since we own them now. I suppose it would be fair to say that "the other guy" simply bought what was available at the bankruptcy sale of Pourette. Not some business deal as he likes to portray.
The other thing that is clear, His Business was suspended from Ebay for a year. Store closed, recently I am told another of his E-Stores closed as well, on Ebid. I can only point out that history is repeating itself again. Old Pourette, the claim of being the New Pourette and the same downward spiral that happened at Pourette.
Now let’s talk about the molds, I hear daily about the difference between us...... The lack of detail that comes in generation after generation of molds. Making a copy of a copy and detail is lost, and the quiality is lessened. We on the other hand rework each master, adding that detail back.... not slap it in and sell it.
Finally, Our Molds are made by candle makers, for candle makers.......with an eye on the detail, it’s a fact, your customers will notice. Will you offer them a VW or a BMW?
It is easy to see, just from our daily business...... who offers the BMW.
Happy Candlemaking!
