Ammo reloading pricing

Ive only loaded for other people a handful of times. Most of the time it's my father in law or other family as a gift. Had a coworker want me to load some 6.5 creed for him. I told him to buy RCBS dies and bring components and id load up 100 of whatever he wanted. This was when ammo was really hard to find in like 2020/2021. He brought it all over and bought dies for me to keep. I made up about 20 different loads for him to try. He never got around to shooting them and then found a deal on factory ammo and bought a bunch. So here I am with my free dies and he's got his components still sitting in a box ready to finish them out whenever he comes back around to it.
 
It'd probably take about $3/round for me to consider doing it more than a couple times offhand just to be a good friend.. I.E. I wouldn't do it.

But I sure wouldn't be annealing and trimming each time either. Waste of time.
 
I've had a bunch of buddy's ask me to reload for them. I said hell no. I barely like reloading my own stuff. Which is true. Sometimes I enjoy it but its time consuming on a single stage.
