Is it cheaper to order equipment online or at a store (what stores sell Squat Racks?)
I tried to google this for a little bit, but now I am just wondering if there are any stores in the country and sell equipment like squat racks and would it be cheaper in store or usually something like amazon?
thanks

Around where I live you can't find a power-rack in a store. If you want something like a Power Rack, Leg Press or the like you have to buy used or order offline. All I see in stores are Smiths, Leverage Gyms, Benchpresses or Weights.

Try Search Tempest.it will scour Craigslist and Ebay for you at the same time.

do you ask for PR? many of our stores have zero on the floor but we stock and sell 4 different ones. If they have smiths and leverage pieces they can at least order PRs.

Yep. The Dick's in my area don't have Powertec racks on display, just the Smith, but they do stock them. You need to ask!
