Does any see how this adds up to $1800.00

I emailed the guy and offered  $400

Used setup.   No way am I using opened powder

At the most at retail I come up with ~$700

Press new is $310
RCBS  powder system is $275
Tumbler is $50
Dies maybe 100

Am I too low in my offer?

Yeah he's smoking crack. Your offer is what I would offer.

I look at it like this....

chargemaster is almost $300 new
tumbler is like $50 or $60
Press has to be worth $100
the rcbs trim tool is worth $50 or $75
the dies and Wilson gauges have to be another $100
If the powder is unopened figure another $100
Misc tools and brass another $75 or $100 depending

So like $750 figuring the press low and the charge master high and not counting whatever there is for projectiles. I think $1800 is dumb. However I think $400 is low. I would think somewhere around $600, maybe $700 tops is more reasonable. If you were someone looking to get into reloading that's a pretty decent set up for $600.

If the powder is opened deduct $100 for above.

I don't know what the heck are in the two blue/purple boxes behind the tumbler, marked $74.95, but the SMK, the Redding T-7 and Chargmaster, are the three big things actually worth some money. That said, even new, at peak prices, I don't think all of that would equal up to $1800.

I wouldn't have offered any more than 400-450 personally.

Redding T7 press, model RCBS, humm.

I'm thinking this person does not know much about reloading. Just look at his "bench".

What bullets? amount?
Primers? amount?
Powder?
Dies? What calibers? A reloader would mention the calibers.

I'm a bargain hunter, I would not offer over $500 IF I knew what I was getting.

This is just someone who is selling this equipment and thinks he can get retail price.

$100-powder
$60-Primers
$120 dies, but maybe more since they're Redding
$200 Sierra Bullets
$75 brass? I dont know how much is there or the caliber. Say 500 30-06 at .15cents each which is cheap.
$60 for the case gauges
$80 Trimmer just guessing
$250 powder measure
$60 Tumbler
$300 Turret Press
$30 hand primer


No way I'd pay $1800 dollars for that unless there's something Im not seeing.

Bench is included in price. What a deal!

I see gun related stuff on Craigslist all the time at exaggerated prices.  I think these guys have figured out they can post high prices as there is rarely much else on the site to compare to.

I agree I see little on CL as for shooting and reloading equipment in my area

He's high for sure I have a ton of stuff and no one is buying at any price.

Stolen or inherited perhaps.
