Just won a bid on a Lortone 45c, for $29.00. Is that a good price? The guy said there was 1 load of rocks ran through it in the first grit only. I bought the dual C.E. tumbler in the beginning of Feb. and the motor slowed to about 25 revs/min. and I bought the extended warranty for 5 bucks and took it back today, the new one spins at 65 revs/min. It's the only time an, e.w. has done me good.

Hi, It sounds great, but if it was the one I was watching, they wanted about $30.00 for shipping. I thought that was a bit hi. Maybe you're a lot closer and it won't be so much.

What a great find at 29 bucks! But, I agree with Arkie, the shipping is a bit high. I ordered the big thumler from Kemph's gunshop and the shipping was only 17 bucks. That is one thing you have to check out when bidding on Ebay is the shipping price as it may also have the seller's profit in the shipping price.

Sounds like a good price to me. I know yesterday when I checked ebay under Lortone there looked like there were several good deals about to happen. I like to find a couple used 6lbs lortone barrels.

The seller is in Green Bay and I live in Kenosha. The shipping is only $12.00 I think I made out ok.
