Found a set of 5-100lb dumbbells. I asked what brand they are and he said homemade. They appear to be in good shape, but being homemade makes me nervous. He is asking $850 for all of them and the racks He then lowered his price to $700... should I stay away from these or not? I'm just nervous about them being bent, but he says they aren't.

Based on my calculations, it's 2100lbs total. So 2100lbs @ $.50/lb = $1050, not including the handles and racks. I'd say that his price of $700 ($.33/lb) is more than fair, but I'd still go look them with the intention of offering him less.

Would you be concerned with them being "homemade" though?

Not in the least. I'd look them over in person before committing to anything, but we're not talking about a nuclear reactor here, it's a bunch of iron plates and steel handles. Worst case scenario, you have to find a local welder to fix a couple of loose end caps or bent handles. The plates themselves (where the actual value is) are damn near indestructible.

How do their prices look? Im thinking about buying a few things from them in the near future
Ok thanks man. They look like they were built pretty strong. Just curious because he is approx two hours away from me.
that is a great deal, esecially if you are looking to add them to your gym. Plus you do not have to worry about piecing a set together. And the two tier racks (there are two of them, aren't there?) are probably worth $100 each.

Set of dumbell pairs - 95, 100, 105, 110, 115 and 120lbs. Solid steel head dumbell with welded handle and knurled grip. Great condition.

It really depends on your local market, but there's no way that setup would bring that kind of money here in the Atlanta area. I'd say the rack is worth between $250 and $400, and the bench somewhere between $50 and $75. There are definitely better deals to be had.

I WOULD PREFER TO SELL THE ITEMS ALL TOGETHER BUT WOULD CONSIDER SELLING SEPERATLEY- THOUGH THE BUMBER PLATES AS A SET(160 LBS). THIS SET WAS BOUGHT 2 YEARS AGO BUT USED FOR LESS THAN A YEAR. RATHER THAN HAVE IT CONTINUE TO COLLECT DUST IN MY GARAGE I HAVE DECIDED TO SELL. I AM LOCATED IN THE EAST BAY, CALIFORNIA IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED. PICK UP ONLY. FEEL FREE TO PM ME YOUR OFFERS OR QUESTIONS. I HAVE PICTURES IF YOU WANT ME TO SEND THEM THROUGH EMAIL, APPARENTLY I DONT HAVE ENOUGH POSTS TO POST PIC/LINKS.
Ok boys, I need some pricing help. I found a guy with some Ivanko stuff and want to know a good price to buy it for. He didnt say what weight they are or anything but here is what he told me:
7 ft Ivanko Olympic Bar - $150
6 ft Ivanko (Olympic) Curling Bar - $150
All Bars are black.
I also have an Olympic Fat Bar (from Williams Strength) if you're interested - only a couple years old - $250
I'd say those are decent prices for the Ivanko bars. I would definatley take a look to confirm what he is selling and see if he'd take less for both of them. Really don't have any info on the Fat Bar. I'd offer 2-250 for both of the Ivanko's

Are these good prices?? And what should I offer?
I'm just going off of meory here so I may not be 100% accurate.. I believe the 6' curl bar originally sold for about $185. The version that he is selling is out of production. If you look at Ivanko's website, they are finally about to re-release an "improved" version of that bar. I would use that info as ammo and get the price knocked down to $100 if in perfect condition.
FYI: I got mine for $80 with an original asking price of $125 and that was when "out of production" made it MORE desirable.. His timing for selling (imo) makes it less desireable. and yes, I still love the bar.
