I bought this powder dispenser in 1988... it is finally giving it up... Time to finally upgrade I guess... I got this as part of a Lee reloading package in '88 and have used it since. There is no telling how many charges of powder this thing has thrown over the years... It has been a good one.

 
Which part is about to die? Only problem I had out of one is from flake powder working its way thru the drum
the drums have gotten so worn small powder is leaking out the side... I guess it is just an excuse to get a new nice one... but that thing sure did last a long time for being almost all plastic
 
I bet if you called or contacted Lee, they would send you parts to repair or replace it…
They probably would but I would feel bad about it... I certainly have gotten my money out of the stuff... I think everything at the time in the package was like $80 bucks... Press, scale, measure and a set of dies

I'm still using my old RCBS Rockchucker from 40 years ago. Still making all I need it to do.

And now it's going to cost you that much for just the dispenser. If they'd replace it, I'd let them. That's what the lifetime thing is there for and they have no problem touting that to sell their products. Backing their product also gives them free advertising from satisfied customers too. That's obviously up to you but I wouldn't feel bad about it.
 
I had a Lee press that I bought used. Part of the linkage broke so I emailed them to see about buying the part. They asked me to send a picture of the broken part, which I did. They replied that they would send me a replacement for the broken part free of charge, just send my address. Great customer service from Lee.

I have a brand new one of those...came in the kit. I've never used it. It's yours if you want it.
Let me know.
