Overscore Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Hi all, As we all know, it takes a while to get presses, supplies, etc., these days. Does anyone happen to know if, by chance, if these delays apply to less significant orders? Specifically, one of my locator pins for 9mm grew legs and walked away last night, so I want to order some spares. Before doing so, I'm wondering if I'd be better off trying to find one in person at the two local places that sell Dillon products. Waiting a few days for an online order is no problem, but if it's two months, I'd probably at least try locally first. I only don't immediately do that, because "local" is a relative term in this case, each place being more than an hour away. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atbarr Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I ordered a part for my press,and some ammo boxes. I received my order in less than 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longhill Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I ordered some powder measure parts from the website and received them in California in three days by USPS. Surprised how quickly they shipped the parts. Very satisfied with their service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overscore Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Excellent. Thanks for the feedback. 3 days, 10 days, or anything in that range is more than fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTNuge Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Received today a .223 trim die and deluxe quick change kit that I ordered on March 1st. Everything else in my order came at least a month ago. I have a feeling it was the 223 trim die that was the big hold up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roons Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Ordered a cover for my press direct from Dillon on April 23rd, and it was shipped out on April 29th. Received it on May 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldgoat03 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Delivery time after order from Dillon seems dependent upon on what you order. In my experience small replacement parts usually arrive within days. On the other hand I ordered a .380 ACP conversion, toolhead and small primer assy for my SDB March 19 and just rec'd notice it has shipped and should arrive tomorrow May 18.

scythefwd Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 My 9mm die set is backordered (and one set sold for 190 on ebay.. wow, crazy). They're shipping me something out on warranty that I should be paying for (not one to look a gift horse in the mouth here) and I suspect its something that will ship quick because its a very common set of parts (specifically decapping pins and the 4th station on my sdb tool head).

tunaman Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 They've turned around a couple of part orders for toolheads and stands within a week or so recently. I've got a delivery notification for my latest order, so that took about two weeks this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overscore Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Well, fwiw, I placed the order a week ago and haven't gotten any notifications other than the initial order confirmation. Fortunately, it's not for anything critical, so it's no issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overscore Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Overscore. I have an extra and if you need it before yours comes in toss me a PM and I will loan it to you. Retread Much appreciated! I was off work today, so I took a trip to my relatively local shop that sells Dillon parts and was able to get one. I also picked up a shiny new roller handle, since my hands were screaming for one after decapping 3,000 cases last night. But THANKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boxerglocker Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I ordered a couple of conversion parts for my XL650 to use a .45 ACP conversion to load .308 back on April 4 and the order still shows finalized.

dhenry132 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 10 days to 2 weeks on the stuff I have ordered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonandMichelle Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I ordered a 9mm caliber conversion kit, a .40S&W case gage, and a deluxe quick change kit (along with my 650). Still waiting on the 650 (been 3 weeks), but got the other stuff two weeks to the date of order. So...OTHER THAN THE PRESS...two weeks was my wait.

Overscore Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 My order from 5/15 is also in "finalized" status, whatever that means. Damn these hysterical times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonandMichelle Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I'm waiting for someone to say they got their order in under the posted "X to Y" weeks. I'm almost to my 4-6 weeks! I check the front door about every half hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purecharger Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 If its in stock, Dillon is shipping orders pretty quick. Last tuesday I ordered a set of .44 Magnum dies and the conversion kit for 1050. The shipment arrived Monday. I'm a happy camper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdbreload Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) I ordered an SDB empty cartridge bin/assembly on 6/8, arrived 6/12. Great addition if you have a strong mount. Edited June 13, 2013 by sdbreload Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyreb Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I cleaned out my parts box and sent in about a dozen items under warranty. I had the replacements in about a week after my box was received. I ordered a new powder measure assembly and powder drop tube for .223. That order took a little over two weeks to arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
