That is just supply and demand. No neckbeard has half the wit to hoard them knowing prices are going up and he could gouge you at the perfect moment.

Did you break one or lose it? Still have it? Looks like it’s be pretty simple to make. Especially if you have the cups, springs and anvils from the old one.

Never had it, press was a gift from a friend and didn't come with the primer arm. Just thought the price the guy is asking was funny. You can buy a brand new 4 position Turret press with primer arms for a little over $100.00.

Ok. I was thinking you might have broken it and I was gonna offer to help you replicate or repair it if you needed help.

Yeah there’s no way I would pay that for that part compared to buying a whole new setup. But, if a guy can capitalize on having a part that’s discontinued, well that’s how it works I reckon.

Yea I don't think the fella is neckbearding, this is supply and demand. If he can get that for one part. Maybe you should look at parting out your whole press to make enough money to buy a brand new press. Heck maybe that is why you got a free press. Your buddy may have known this wasn't worth fixing. Also here is a list of the most recent sales of that part. Looks like that price ain't that bad.
