Thinking of parting with a RCBS big max press. It just has the universal case holder setup. Wondering what the thing is worth? Still kind of up in the air deciding if I really want to part with it as they are few and far between

I paid $250 for mine but they sell on e-bay for $300 to $500. Seems to be more for sale recently so the prices are down some.
I think the "swager guys" are the ones that brought the "values" on them up over the past few years. Might ask over there. They're a little "overkill" for most reloading chores (like the Rock Crushers) However, they are a really great old press.
There was one locally for sale a couple of months ago. Fellow wanted $275. If I needed a press I might have looked at it but it seems like reloading things 'reproduce' during a full moon or sometime - at least from looking at the 'stuff' that has accumulated- and so I just didn't see a need.
