Easier to go to a machine shop, order what you need, have it welded and have an equipment that will last you a lifetime.

Or just buy a grinder, cheap stick welder, learn to weld a bit and try to build something useful for yourself.

I'm an ironworker ,a certified welder  ,I own all  of my own  tools  (welder ,grinder............) , sorry but   I think that's  a dumb idea

No they don't.

I see the price is finally starting to drop . These were far more two months ago. Delivery is quoted as August 24 though so the boat from China must be slow :)

I find that hard to believe because I checked their site yesterday and two 25lbs dumbbells were something like $190.  Checked today and the same cap rubber hex pair is $89. What the fuck?  Drastic drop.

I didn't lie.

Here's the expired deal:

You have to be diligent and put the time in - or set up email alerts so you can grab deals ASAP.

If you're infinitely patient and put in research, deals are out there - you'd be surprised how many people are moving in pinch and don't want to bring the heavy stuff.

Funny thing is that since my Gold's closed I have been doing dumbbell workouts exclusively and look better than I ever did, lol. I am sure a lot of people won't be going back to gyms after this is over.
