Reloading Equipment
With the risk of getting hammered by Captain --- I have a complete reloading outfit for several different calibers. It is good quality equipment and not abused. (I inherited it from my father) I have way too many hobbies/vices and do not have room in my shop or the time to start reloading.
I am going to sell this locally and as a complete setup. AS per saltwater tackle if you sell a used reel in excellant condition plan on selling 1/2 of what it costs new. Would the same hold true for reloading equipment.
I am not trying to advertise this here. So don't make any offers that will get me flushed from this site.

Need advice so I can purchase economical reloading equipment
for my 300 Blackout. I'd also like to load 30 carbine, .30-06, 7.62 x 25, and .223. I do not require a progressive press, unless the price and accuracy are comparable to that of a single stage setup.
Your input is appreciated.0 -
Well, it depends.
If your dies & shell holders are for popular calibers, someone may be willing to buy the whole outfit. But, you may do better selling the outfit in separate parts.
The % you will recover will be higher for some brands (e.g., Dillon, with their lifetime warranty) than for others.
There are a lot of folks who look for reloading equipment on Gunbroker (and competing auction sites). If 50% would satisfy you, start there and congratulate yourself if you do better.

Amber, welcome aboard. If your equipment is Dillon, you should see at least 75% of current retail. I tracked the stuff for about a year before I was able to buy a used setup at that price on line; I've seen it go 90%.
If RCBS, the press will bring at least 50%, but used dies in common / popular calibers are a drug on the market . . . *new* dies from discounters can be had for not much more than 50% of list. I had a commercial reloading business and sold off about 80 sets of dies and almost as many case forming die sets a few years back. You can easily realize *much* more than 50% on the more exotic tooling simply because it is so bloody expensive special ordered these days. I see people paying 50% and more for motorized / electronic equipment and shake my head, but it does sell.
Speaking for myself, as a buyer, I'd not give much for equipment and tools from most other makers absent some special considerations too numerous to discuss.0 -
I hope you will consider ebay/. If you try to sell locally, you will get screwed. If you break it down into single components, you will get a much better price on the national exposure of ebay. It really depends how much of your investment you want to recover. If you use good pictures and a good smart title (for high hits) you can get 75 %
If you are not familiar, I can help you understand how to make the best of the auction format. I've been doing it a long time.
Just give me a note if you are interested. I just hate people to lose the value of their items. Happened to me before and I didn't like it.
