Is this a good deal?

I am trying to scrounge up enough money to get into reloading. I found this but would like a more experienced opinion.

RCBS reloader with a bullet press, powder measure, powder scale; reload manual, bullet puller, tumbler and a piggy back attachment that makes it progressive.

It includes carbide dies for 9mm 38/357 and 44mag with shell plate and shell holder.

I would reload some pistol but mainly Rifle cart. right now up to 338RUM

  My uncle got the package deal from LEE at Midway or Natchez for <$100.
  
  It includes everything. actually very impressed. He makes ammo just the same as I do on my RCBS.
  
  If your loading a 338 you won't be doing it in mass volume. and you'll want to do it for accuracy so a single stage is all you'll need.
  
  IMHO

  WCI he wants too much $$ about twice of what I would be willing to pay. The RCBS PIGGY BACK was IMHO a poor attempt to make a progressive reloader.

  I have asked him to send some pics. I did look on e-bay among other places and saw you could get in the door much cheaper. I just thought if you could get a really good set up for a good price it might be worth it. I also found a box of rusted junk that in a former life might have worked for 150.00 Everything was missing pieces and parts. Seller stated it was found in a box in a barn they were cleaning out.
  Thank you for the Info

  Its just the press, but there are a couple of Rockchucker II's on the auction side that are currently at about $65.
