I recall someone was looking for a .40-70 SS reloading tool.  Saw this on eBay.  I have no dog in the fight.

I call myself a collector as it sounds better than hoarder

I think I bought mine not that long ago and it was only three bills. If it came with the original box one might would consider more but not that much. 

Someone might want it for that, but not me.

That would be me, but I am not going to pay that much for a reloading tool that is not complete.

I don’t blame you Bert. If it were in pristine condition and not simply the tool with pin, but also included the mold, the charge cup, and the original instructions with the box. It would be on up there, but even then it seems to be a stretch on the price.

Maybe I’m just getting old but I’d rather hold on to my money for a better deal. The empty box Western ammo box and copy of instructions don’t do anything for me. But with the rate of inflation steady increasing, the price might be on the money before we know it.

Sincerely,

Maverick
