Were the old RCBS Lube-a-matics that much better than the new ones? I just came across an old one ( in new condition) going for over $200 on FleaBay.
I paid about $150 for my new one.
I know ebay gets kinda crazy once in a while (saw a used Lee 22 bator mold go for over $30) but sometimes older is better

you can get a new star for $250. Seems way high to me, but I am not familiar with the older lube-a-matic. Are they made of 14k gold? :grin:
Generally see them going for about $80, plus shipping. Maybe the $200 one included a bunch of dies.

That price seems way over the top, values for things on ebad are just that, ebad values.

Fleabay is getting like pawn shops. I go to pawn shops and see old junk priced higher than new at walmart. I never have been to jew them down to a reasonaable price. Fleabay is madness.. People are bidding/paying too much for anything reloading related.
I have an older one that I got on ebay for $95 plus shipping a few years ago. Still cheaper than a new one. Works fine but I can't say as it is the bees knees either.
