I've been trolling Craigslist and Armslist for a while for someone unloading a progressive press for cheap. And then it happened. . . Last night after I tucked the little one in bed I pull up Craigslist and do some searches for Hornady, reloading, and Dillon. The Dillon search brings up "Reloader - $250." This is what dreams are made of; an estate sale with someone who doesn't care what the press is worth. They just want it gone. It was a XL650 with case feeder, unkown set of dies installed on the tool head, and other dies and accessories. It was listed just two hours before I got to respond so I thought I had a good chance at it. I must have been the fourth person to respond because she said there were already three others ahead of me. But the seller was being fair to those who responded first and even though I offered more than asking price wouldn't let me skip in line. With a price of $250 I knew I didn't have a chance being the fourth in line, and before too long she responded and said it was sold. Whoever the old guy was who owned it is probably rolling in his grave right now. And the new owner is still grinning ear to ear.
Well, that's my story. What's yours?
