Play it again sports has plates at .50 a pound. Craigslist too.Yeah I've been looking at a lot of places like that. Honestly though I don't mind buying a new one and kinda of want to.
Now if someone finds a deal on someone selling Olympic weights let me know. Those fuckers are 1.00 a pound and that gets really expensive
Elitefts is the best competition equipment available hands down. Costly but top notch.
