Why buy a used anything when you can get a brand new Lee kit for less than used in most cases?
I got started loading the exact same way the OP is doing, asking questions of people who know.
Got the Lee turret press kit due to the number of recommendations and could not be happier.

I've been shopping at this fairly new reloading shop in Fort Oglethorpe Georgia.
I've found that his prices are very reasonable (slightly less than Midway on some stuff) and the owner is a great guy to deal with. www.northgeorgiareloading.com is his web address. If you live close, give him a...
