We are downsizing.

I have 2 Redding T7s and a Hornady progressive.

Given the huge shipping costs, is it even worth bothering to try and sell them ?

No I won't give them away.

It is. When you recieve "market value" for something, that is not giving it away. Market value is determined by the cost of alternatives. So go on to any of the big internet retailers determine the cost for new including shipping and determine a reduced price for used including shipping. If you don't like the price you will recieve, then it is not worth it to you.

Midway has a new Redding T-7 for $380 including shipping.


Internet analysis: 1 in a row is a trend, 2 in a row is statistically significant, and 3 in a row is an irrefutable fact

Fools & fanatics are always so certain and wise people are always so questioning

Good response.

Agreed they are worth selling. You also have to determine what your time is worth relative to the packing and shipping of an item. The used market is not as hot as it was say a year ago, but there are folks who would gladly spend to purchase.

I think reloading stuff has slowed down a bit mainly
Most getting started are finding out that it’s tougher to get components
I think this has slowed that business quite a bit

Just my observation

All jokes aside, shipping is not terrible. You'd be surprised what will fit in a large flat rate USPS box for $20.

Just post a price, and a couple pics. Let the market decide. Many great buyers on the Fire here.

A T-3 would not fit.

Your loading equipment is worth exactly what someone is willing to pay and that price will vary depending on the buyer.

For a starting point find the lowest price online and take 20% off of that shipped.

Depending on the price, condition, and location for a possible face to face transaction, I could be intetested in 1 or both of the T-7’s. Post or pm me some photos if you are interested in selling…

Thanks for your thoughts.
Think it's easier to keep them.
