I am in the market to get some of the old, out of production reloading equipment, like a Lachmiller 400, a B&M 28, and WH English Pak Tool. The problem is, none of this old stuff seems to be in circulation. I've checked Ebay, but no luck.
Where do all the old reloading presses and accessories go? They don't break and I can't believe that anyone would just throw them out. Are there dealers who buy and sell this stuff, or is there some secret repository where they are waiting for the right time to reappear?

There ARE collectors out there! I mentioned once in a forum having an old R. F. Wells press. An employee of Brownell's contacted me wanting to buy it. He had several. He owns it now. In talking to him he said there was a market and collectors. Seemed strange to me, but he spent $$$ and we were both happy.
