Dillon is famous for their No BS Warranty - the customer support stories are legendary. You could be like, "yeah - I accidentally blew up my press with tannerite," and they'd be like, "Ok - box up the pieces and send them over with the $79.95 service fee." Then they'd send you a brand new press. That might be a slight exaggeration, but not by much.
Berrys Manufacturing is a good place too. My vibrator cover has cracked a couple of times and they just send me a replacement when I give them a call.

The 450 was discontiuned in 1983 and superseded by the 550, two months after I bought the 450. I later upgraded with their 550 press kit.
I broke the bell crank on my press. I called Dillon. After some Q & A the rep told me to not use CCI primers (my favorite at the time) because the primer cup material is so hard. They also told me to give the handle a little jab when the case contacts the primer, not the slow steady force I had been using as with a hand tool. They sent me a bell crank. I pressed the broken bell crank back to its original shape and asked the welding instructor to do his magic. He did and I still have it...just in case.
