these people are completely stupid.....unless i am missing something
Not all sellers "over there" are stupid. I picked up a JR2 just like it about a month ago (a little bit cleaner and including the original alum primer catcher plus a handful of shell holders), for $30 + $11 shipping.
I was happy . . . Doug

Is it "vintage"?
Too bad I refurbed and repainted mine! I could have made 10 times the prfit I bought it for!

Often, ebay and idiocy go hand-in-hand, affecting both the seller and the buyer.
Patience is an ebay-buying virtue.
and no primer stuff
Guys, your jumping to conclusions!
They forgot the DECIMAL point.
IT's $2.25!

It ain't the SELLER who's stoopid.
Not that there was ever a "Rock Chucker JR-2" press to start with.
I just saw one of those presses (in better condition) with an RCBS Little Dandy powder measure included on Craigslist for 100 bucks. Still a little too rich for my blood, but much better than $225!

What did you think about that Herters #3 on ebay this past week that went for $90+ just because someone threw a coat of paint on it?!! While others are going for $19, $29....
Chrome sells!
Yeah, I saw that! I think the seller said something about it being original paint that he just touched up. Really???
This could be a great business opportunity. Buy the press for 20 bucks, then sand blast it, and paint it in something a little risky....maybe "chrome" paint. Then, list it as a ONE-OF-A KIND with a $75 start price!
Jon
I personally wouldn't pay $20 for any press that doesn't have compound linkage. Not even those fascinating old Herter's yacht anchors.
got a rockchucker (not jr), little dandy with 2 rotors, 38-357 lee carbide dies, powder measure stand for lil dandy, loading block = $65
Rich or poor, it's good to have money.
Damn, that's in worse shape than mine! One advantage to the lack of compound leverage - I've never owned a stuck case remover!

Wayne,
You better start knocking on all the wood you see, I have stuck a bunch of LC 5.56 brass using my Pacific Super C. I learned how to turn the shellholder so I could slip it off the cse and out of the ram at the same time; it is a heck of a lot easier than trying to pull the rim off a case.
I did have a bad can of spray lube, the second can of Hornady's One Shot. Now I am using Imperial Sizing Die wax.

Another point on the $90 Herter's, it did not have the correct handle. The original had been replaced by an older one.
I am waiting to see if it turns up on a board somewhere with the new owner bragging about his rare version.

Hi,
Well...I never saw a case that could not be resized with a stout built single leverage press and good dies and lube! I'd put my old Pacifics up against an RCBS Rockchucker any day!

1. The return of Dallas on television is helping prices of these particular presses to skyrocket.
2. Reports of folks on public benches having their faces and ears eaten off. JR Two is one of the few presses that are completely spell proof for reloding silver Zombie Boolits without scattering them all over the floor.

Put a bullet swaging die in one of those presses and then try it with a rockchucker and I'll bet dollars to doughnuts you change your opinion.I'd put my old Pacifics up against an RCBS Rockchucker any day!
Hi,
I don't swage,and we are talking reloading! You are probably correct as far as leverage goes, but is really not needed for most 99% of RELOADING!
IMO after nearly 30 years of pulling handles!
