I have a like new, never used Lyman Ideal C-Frame reloading press. I had thought of getting into reloading but never got around to it. Also included are two RCBS case neck brushes that are also new - one large and one medium.
Lyman’s Brass Smith Ideal Press is a precision companion press for experienced reloaders. The compact design of the Ideal Press requires minimal bench space, but it is not some flimsy lightweight! The rugged press frame is made of cast iron, while other components are all steel. The press features compound linkage for optimum leverage, a 1” diameter ram, and a 3 7/8” press opening which can handle all pistol calibers and rifle cartridges with a loaded length of up to 3.700”. The press has a central handle position for easy ambidextrous use and a ball handle for comfortable operation. The Ideal Press accepts all 7/8x14 thread dies and standard shell holders. The press will provide accuracy and precision for beginners or experts, and is the perfect auxiliary press for those wishing to perform a specific operation separate from their main press. And it is made in the USA!
-Rugged cast iron frame
-Ambidextrous design
-Handles all pistol calibers and rifle cartridges up to 3.700 in length
-Accepts all standard 7/8”x14 dies and standard shell holders
-Durable powder coat finish

Asking only $80. I see these going for around $130 to $140, so I think this is a great price given that it has never been used.
