For some reason I have been saving mine since I started reloading 3 years ago. I now have about 3/4 of a paint can of them. Good to know you can get money for them.
It dosnt seem to me that it is worth saving them. I got 3 Lee Pro 1000's and to dump the old primers you have to make a device to attach to your vacuum cleaner to suk them out of the machine. Maybe with other machines it is easier but I think if I just sold all my darn NT .45 cases I would be way better off than trying to salvage old primers.
Even if they have a surface coating,they are all copper or brass underneath. in the course of a year our pistol club produces approx 60lbs of scrap primers,when sold it goes into club funds for butts repairs or new targets etc.Scrap is good,especially when you look at todays prices of copper & brass.
