Inherited reloading supplies, is there any value to this stuff?

This is my first post, hopefully does not go against rules. I was given all this stuff and have no idea what to do with it or what, if anything, it's worth. Tons of dies, bullets in various calibers, primers, etc. I've been interested in reloading but flat out don't have the time to get into it right now so I'm not really interested in keeping any of it.

Everything has value. Question is how much. You have quite a variety of things. Probably worth more sold individually but then you have to invest time to sell separately, which you already said you don't have. Your best bet would be to determine a price you are comfortable with and offer it as a lot.

You could take the time to check prices on individual things(that you don't have) and list them for half or less than retail. That will consume a lot of time. Just do yourself a favor and decide what you can live with and offer it for that.

Some one else will be a long shortly and give a different opinion.
 
Invaluable.

Possessing the equipment, components, and knowledge necessary to manufacture your own ammunition is a skill that you’ll eventually be thankful you have.


If you ever think you'll get into the reloading hobby, there's really nothing there that will go bad. Keep it in a climate controlled space ( if you have the room ) and it will be ready to go whenever you are.

If you just want it gone, that would be no problem.

Definitely it will sell. I helped a friend sell off her dad’s reloading stuff a few years ago when he passed away. Everything sold here on this forum, no issues, great people.
You could price it as a whole complete lot if you don’t want to spend time separating and pricing it individually, but you’ll get less money that way.

You would get the most money by putting things that go together in lots (like: all 9mm bullets) and selling each lot individually.

This is also the most work, and the most interactions.

The easiest route, that gets less money (maybe half as much or less) is to sell the entire lot to a single person who has use for some of it, and is willing to flip the rest. That buyer might end up with everything they want from your lot for “free” after they put in the work of parting it out.


We can help you fairly price any individual lot, individual item, or the whole lot. Note that some items will never sell on their own. Not enough juice for the squeeze, as they say.


If it were my lot, and I knew nothing about pricing at all, I’d sell to people here who will treat you fair.

If I wanted to do more work and maybe make a bit more, I’d buy a table at the next big gun show and see what I could make off the people there. Then I’d come back here and sell the remainders as a single lot.


I can easily make out over a thousand dollars worth of stuff in the pics. It’s worth more than 1K, but there’s 1K that I see I could use. At least most of it is not obscure caliber items.



EDIT: WELCOME TO THE FORUM!

Separate out what you're going to keep. Then trade for what you'll use.
Finally sell anything left.

Like someone said above, being able to load your own ammo is a skill that you'll be glad you have. Myself, I laid down my reloading for about 20 years. Time change in 2008 and I'm glad I still had all my equipment.
 
Well that was super easy! Thanks everyone, I sold the whole lot to a member on here. I'm going to stick around as I have some additional ammo to unload (no pun intended) as well.
Awesome to hear! But I hope you stick around for reasons other than buyin' and sellin'. We be a delightful brotherhood of degenerates, reprobates, and skallywags.
