Looks like a plan. I went with the DAA primer pro. I'm very happy with it so far.
I don't use a powder check, so I still seat and crimp separate. You can set up one of the camera viewers or a mirror to see the powder charge as you are loading.
You'll definitely want some stands for the extra toolheads.
Double Alpha is in PA, so you might be able to order through them. On some things they allow preordering.
.
9mm conversions are scarce right now. Pro tip- 38 super uses all the same parts. So if you can't find a 9 order the super and a green case feed adapter. Then you have a 9 conversion.

I just ordered an Ender 3 and I have the Inline Fabrication Wall rail...so maybe I can print some tool head holders for that to save space on the workbench.
Also saw guys were printing their own bullet feeders...I figured I'd give that whirl and see what happens. Plus it was an excuse to get a 3d printer.
After doing a bit more research, I saw people were using cameras and mirrors rather than the powder check, so I'll probably go that route.
Good call on the 38 super...maybe I'll just do that instead, although I'm in no rush for the 9mm conversion.
I'm going to order all the stuff through the dealer I used to work at so...

Huge fan of my 1100.
Bought it last May and have loaded probably close to 30k 9mm on it.
I also have the DAA primer pro, and it works pretty well. If you use Winchester primers, they have a video specifically for these since they tend to be dirty.
I heard from others (friends) that the Dillon primer tube filler can be finicky, but don't have personal experience with it
I've got a mix of primers downstairs. CCI, S&B, Winchester, and some Federal (I think).
I was reading the Dillon one can be finicky...but I suspect they all can be based on what I'm seeing.
