Sue Kempf uses a Lee Classic Turret herself and is very knowledgeable on that and other presses, too.Lee does have a turret kit. Has most of the basic parts that you would need to start loading. Of course, You should check it before you order it to make sure all is there. There not bad presses at all. I cannot really speak for any brand of press as I only have the Lee press. The lever you pull down on will make the ram come up. These are the parts that should be kept clean and greased a little or oiled.
Since your going with the turret, You may want to oil/ grease a bit where the turret plate sits as well since those have little ball bearings in them. Craigslist may be a good place to look for stuff but you can also look on here or other forums that reload and see if anyone is selling something your interested in.
If your gonna buy new, Try FSreloading.com, Titanreloading.com, MidWayUSA.com, or Grafs.com. There all good outfits and good prices. You can also check one called Kempfs.
Lee makes two turrets, Deluxe and Classic. The Classic turret is superior to the Deluxe turret in several ways. As of a year ago all kits based on the Lee Turrets were based on the Deluxe Turret.
Last time I checked, Craigslist prohibited even telescopic sights and (I think) even stocks. but now the list is somewhat shorter
Partial list of items for sale and services the advertisement of which is not permitted on craigslist:
Weapons and related items, including firearms, ammunition, silencers, pellet/BB guns, tear gas or stun guns.
