Tom Platz garage sale/ I'm confused.

Thanks to Figo for the info. I thought it would get more action/response, on the primary board.

I guess I'm not confused, they just need pictures of the articles for sale... wouldn't you think?

 ;D Saw that one too. Love the price $340.00. ;D

"...* Extremely Used Posing Trunks, $340/each:  Various Colors.  Circa '80s. Tom has continued to wear them through the years - he says they are so comfortable - some of them are pretty ratty and worn.  BTW, Lee Priest was given a few pairs of Tom's posing trunks for his birthday."

platz's first squat rack would be a cool buy.

But 'extremely used' posing shorts from 20 years ago?  That's just not cool.

it's a marketplace economy, if he can get that price, why not?

Agreed. That would have to come from "Armento's Gym" In Detroit. I trained there twice in the summer of 1980. Real cool place. Long time ago.

Armento's, had one 45lbs plate C-clamped to each side of the Olympic bars, so no runts could ever used less than 135lbs, when using the O-bars. ;D

Simple. He stopped taking drugs and now his fake muscles have all vanished. I recall he used to compare himself to Robert Redford. In his frigging dreams.

Tom actually did pretty well marketing himself back in his heyday.

I'm going to flip some of those extremely used posing trunks...according to the latest Beckett's, they're way undervalued.
