Got offered a couple of Lee presses from a coworker. $200 for both…..
Oh yeah, and they threw in this stuff too:
Still have another box to go thru……

Wow!!!!!!!!
Wow - Wow!!!!
The sooner I fall behind...the more time I have to catch up with
I would be careful leaving the house for the next couple of years. With a score like that you have used all the luck allotted to you for quite some time.
A vote for anyone other then the conservative candidates is a vote for the liberal candidates.
Damn. Good for you.
You didn't get cheated - too badly
holy moley batman... i guess you got blessed!!! woooo hoooo
Any technology not understood, can seem like Magic!!!
I will love the Lord with all my heart, all my soul, and all my mind.
The primers alone are worth more than that. Good score.
The coworker is a really good kid. She and her husband had a home built a couple of years back and I've been giving them advice on various things just to get them all set up and secure. All this gear was given to him some time back by a relative. The thought was that the relative would be teaching him (and her) reloading. Well, that never materialized and now they are moving into a house much closer to work.....so this stuff was in the way. They insisted, because of all the help that I had been, the price was $200, but I just could not do that. I had to argue that they take more $$$. I finally got her to accept $500 knowing that was still not enough.

Maybe you could teach them. I am sure it would mean a lot to them.

That will have to wait until I learn how to do it first. Except for the Lee Loader thing years ago, I am a complete newbie to this world. But I will keep that in mind if/when I get comfortable with the process. Thank you for planting it in my little pea brain.

Well, I am glad it was not deposited in a land fill! You would be surprised how often good gear and components end up there.

I'll watch for you on the Post Office wall LOL I believe you got the deal of a lifetime.
Happy for you. All your good deeds were repaid in kind.

I expect we will see you on the swapping and selling forum.

Ural Driver, The part I enjoyed reading was the part where you insisted on raising the price from $200.00 to $500.00. That showed real character and I most heartily applaud you for it. Common courtesy and doing what is right regardless of the cost is fast disappearing from our modern society. Its a shame too. I have been blessed to live and work with people that lived their faith, and not just put it on for public display, it was genuine heartfelt. Take Care and remember, God Loves You, james
Sounds like a good deal all around.
Before you start loading, I highly recommend getting a loading manual and reading the front part. It will explain how to adjust the dies and press.
