Cheapest (and most available) place to get gym equip? (srs)

I know this was beat to death a few months ago, but as of recently, does anyone know the best places to look for gym equipment?
Im mainly looking for dumbbells, but would love just about anything at this point.
Ive tried OfferUp, Craigslist, etc, but very slim selection.

I was looking at even getting a full set with a rack, if that's possible these days?

Or does anyone know anyone/places where these could be homemade? Is such a thing even possible?

Thanks!

Damn near straight off the ship. I’ll try to find the email from years ago. Dumbbells, free weights and all sorts of stuff for great prices. You have to pick it up though. I originally found him on Craigslist. Think his name was chad. Srs

Dammit, that's what i was thinking. You have any suggestions on the best retail sites? I've been checking like Rogue, Dicks, etc, but "sold out" everywhere.

Dammit, that's what i was thinking. You have any suggestions on the best retail sites? I've been checking like Rogue, Dicks, etc, but "sold out" everywhere.
Check walmart, academy, dicks, and amazon.

During the lock in I was able to score several sets of weights from academy.

I was also able to score some powerblocks a couple months ago...2 sets with the expansion sets through amazon.


You just gotta check early and check often. I would just have my laptop out to the product pages and hit refresh to see if the stock updated. They don't last long when they come in stock.
