Lee Loaders in 357/38 in stock anywhere?

This crazy panic has EVERYTHING out of stock EVERYWHERE! Anywho, I'm looking really hard for a lee classic loader in 38 or 357. Anyone seen any of them in stock anywhere?

There are 3 up for bids on E-Bay

This one doesn't say "out of stock", so it may be available.
You will need some accessories of course for it.
I have this press, have used it for all my calibers for several years now.
Has performed well for me, although I do not use it as a progressive press,
it just didn't give me the quality control I want. I load each die in batches,
running out 50-100 rounds at a time.
I can't believe how scarce they have become, and the pricing. Everyone wants into reloading due to the ammo shortage, and sky high prices.
I'm glad I have 10K rounds loaded on my shelves, keeps me going to the range every week without breaking the bank.

ShootingNut I think the OP meant the Classic Loader. AKA "Whack-a-Mole" one you use with a mallet. The Lee Loader uses a mallet. The Lee LoadAll is the progressive.

Hmmm, just "whack the lead in", guess I'm just not up on the
latest equipment.
