I currently have fsreloading, titanreloading, and midwayusa websites open. In your experience buying any Lee items, which of them has the best overall prices/shpping?
I'm asking for your opinions because I have dialup, and the pages load
slow...ly.
Thanks for your replies.
I have always done very well at MidwayUSA for Lee stuff. YMMV
If you have a Cabelas near by. Either they have it in stock or free shipping to the store.
+ 1 have it shiped to a cabelas by you if you can you just pay your state taxOriginally Posted by Wots
not S/H cost

When I get ready to buy I compare between Midway, Midsouth Shooters Supply, Natchez Shooters Supply, & Graf's. For supplies I add Powder Valley, Recob's, and Gamaliel's.
Factory Sales is where I go for all my Lee products. I have purchased 3 Lee presses from them. Shipping is very reasonable and prices are lower than just about any you will find on the internet.

I did the same thing a week ago. Pulled up the normal websites, put everything I wanted in the check out in all three, then went to the pay part where I was able to find out total with shipping. I saved $1.37 using midway. Spent an hour figuring it out

+1 on Factory Sales. That is where I bought my Classic Cast Turret press. Couldn't be happier. (of course the wife says I'm a cheap date....)

Kempf gun shop seems to have real low prices on Lee stuff.
They call us civilized because we are easy to sneak up on.
If a little is good, a lot is better, and too much is just right.
I'm going to correct myself. Looks like Grafs has it for cheaper. Plus they only charge $5 for shipping and handling.

ETA - Looks like Factory Sales is still the cheapest, even with $18 for shipping.

I have had great luck with TitanReloading. They are only a few miles from the LEE factory and can get anything immediately. Prices are good, and shipping is quick.
If you need a piece part or a single die or something oddball they are the best as they are the closest. They also have most everything common in stock ready to ship.
I needed a .45-70 bullet seating die to use as crimp die. He drove 2 miles and got it same day and shipped it same day flatrate. Anyone else would have had to order it and it would have taken weeks.
For all my Lee stuff I go to Titan, however I am ordering a Lee Hand Press from Midway today as they are on sale and I need several other things from Midway. The only reason I am ordering it from Midway is they have other stuff I need. If anything is not in stock, I cancel the order as I will not pay Midway's high shipping prices twice for Back Ordered items.
Midways shipping policies are not very good, so I only order when I have several things to buy, also I will not accept a BO if I have to pay shipping separately.
I can order small parts, or die sets or tools from Titan as their shipping is quick, cheap, and easy USPS Priorty Mail.
And last,,,, Dennis is just a great guy to deal with.

I found the best prices on Lee products on Ebay. I can't recall the user name but there is a husband-wife team that usually have 100+ Lee items posted. So far if buying new I haven't found anybody that can beat their prices with shipping included.
Hard to beat factory sales(fsreloading), as long as you are placing a medium to large order.
If you are just buying a die or some such, buy straight from Lee, or Grafs($5 shipping).
Titan Reloading for me, they ship to Philippines cheaper compared to other sites!
+1 for Titan Reloading, I used to go through Midway until I discovered Titan, Always have product delivered within 3 days of purchase and no one beats there prices.
I won't deal with any other company after the fantastic servive I have gotten from them.
I used to buy from Midway a lot..Not any more..
Always out of stock
Shipping is WAY to high..
The post office told me...It is not the
shipping it is their too high a handleing charge..Me
keep on rolling along.no matter what happens just keep rolling
Same with me but I got fed up with their slower than cold molasses website. With the kind of $$'s Midway's website generates I certainly feel they could invest enough to get it to run a bit smoother and faster. I also got a bit tired of getting email with bargains but by the time I get the email the sales items are out of stock.
