Default Traded brass for reloading gear.

I fell into a new gun shop in town and the guy was wanting brass for his shop. I took him 2K once fired, sized and tumbled 9mm, 400 .40cal and 400-.223 Rem. for a total of 2800 pieces, not primed.
I inturn got a new set of Lyman Universal shellholders, set of new RCBS steel dies, Box of Hornady 30cal Interlocks, box of Zombie .308 rounds and a box of .380 Hornady Critical Defense. I think I did OK.
I done all the brass myself. What are once fired, prepped brass going for in your neighborhood?

Thats more or less what I thought. But when you have several 5 gal buckets of each setting around doing nothing, he just opened up, had somethings I could use, he needed the brass to get started, I thought what the heck. I just never looked into what prepped brass gets at places and was just nosey.

SC,

Hook me up. I have some brass some of it not so common that I would sell or trade with the guy. See my thread below.

Remember me? I bought all those primers and 45 lead bullets from you about 2 months ago. I met your daughter.
I have no use for the brass you have listed for if I did, I would have bought them as well at the same time. I called him and he as well declined for he is still sitting on what I traded him for now and is not wanting to get too far over his head with brass for now for what I traded him is rather commonly loaded brass.

SC,

Yep, I remember. Sorry for not putting 2 and 2 together.

O.k. Thanks for trying.
