Looks in good shape from pics plus 3 dies and 6 containers of lube. What's a reasonable offer?

$65 to $85
The dies are $45.00 the lube depends on what it is. The 450 would be worth $75.00 to me if in excellent condition.
Canoe anchor. Search out an old Lyman 45 instead.

I do love my row of 45's on my bench! :mrgreen:
(never had a 450 tho, so I can't knock em any.)
Well that's a little harsh on the 450, it's more rugged than the 45 but I find the 45's easier to use, easier to slide the gascheck into place, easier to change top punches, come to think of it, changing the dies is easier as well. I have 3 out of 5 45's hooked up and one 450. One of these days Lyman is going to make a Lubrisizer that's less vulnerable than the 45 but with all the convenience. Follow the 450's on Fleabay and see what they go for, in reality.Quote:

Turned out seller got $150 for it with several dies and lubes
I got a NIB 4500 18 months ago, including heat element, for $133. I think the 4500 is a better unit than my 450, but still use both.Quote:

IMO in good condtion about 1/2 the price of the current new price at the usual discount price .
