    Ben's lliquid lube on eBay....wow

    Love BLL. Been using it with good results for several years. Bought four cans of johnspn no buff wax on Amazon while it was available. Still have enough for my lifetime after selling one can at cost to another boolit caster. Just out of curiosity one day I checked on eBay to see if it was available. Sure was.....$119 a can!

    Was the Already mixed BLL what was being sold or was it the liquid floor wax part of Ben's recipe ?

    Look at completed sales. Some have sold that high. Most are going for around $50. I’ve been tempted to sell a good portion of what I have. But shipping would be high and eBay takes to big of a cut. Have to add extra to the shipping charges because they even take a piece of that.

    I have the same thought. I stocked up when the OneStep was being discontinued.

    It's great stuff! And they don't make it no more, so everybody's sittin on it. I'm down to about a dozen cans. I think I get about 3 years out of a can.

    Not really. It’s simply supply and demand. Product has been discounted and there’s a high price of you want to buy a can today. It’s not just casters buying it.

    I wonder what other users are buying it for...other than floors?

    One would think that the ingredients could be figured out somehow. Probably wouldn't amount to more than a buck a quart if you made it from scratch.
