Black Friday 2018

[RestoringTally]

So these deals all end tonight?

Depends on the deal. Some ended Friday night, some go on for a while, some ended when the stock ran out. Find the deal that interests you and look it up.

Gymsource (https://www.gymsource.com/) is having their Cyber Monday sale
15% off all in-stock items with code CYBER15 and free shipping over $99.

They carry Powerblock U90 dumbbells

Powerblock U90 Stage 1 Set (5 to 50 lbs) = $322 ($379 - 15%)
https://www.gymsource.com/equipment/...werblocks-5-50

Powerblock U90 Stage 2 kit (50 to 70 lbs) = $118.15 ($139 - 15%)
https://www.gymsource.com/equipment/...tage-ii-70-kit

Powerblock U90 Stage 3 kit (70 to 90 lbs) = $118.15 ($139 - 15%)
https://www.gymsource.com/equipment/...tage-ii-90-kit

So $558.45 for the full set of U90 dumbbells (5 to 90 lbs) with free shipping.

Note: Powerblock has replaced the U90 series with the PRO EXP series (http://www.powerblock.com/pro-exp-stage-1-set.php) and increased the price to $439 for the first set and $149 each for the two expansion sets. They no longer sell the U90 series on their website, so if you were planning to get them then this might be your last chance to get these new at a good price.

No, they played me - and the customer is always right .

I've worked retail...so I disagree.

But now - F'EM on the whole order and my business. Like most of the stuff purchased on BF, we don't really need these products. I would rather buy quality USA made products until someone plays silly stunts like this.

This really just sounds like sour grapes to me. 100 people got a bar for a huge discount. That's really cool of Rogue to do...instead, we have people cursing them out, threatening to file reports to the FTC/BBB, etc. Has no one ever tried to buy a hot concert ticket here? I'm definitely assuming there's no sneakerheads here either. Those things are lotteries too...except in the end, if you win, you still pay full price!

It's whatever you want to do - but holding a grudge over Rogue and then subjecting yourself to Titan quality....really makes it seem like you played yourself here. "Enjoy" the Titan rack and sticking it to Rogue for getting 100 people a bar for $50....how dare they.

[chadsalt]

I want to shift my focus to building up my firearm skills/collection

Good man. If you need any advice let me know, I'll help you spend that money.

[thejosef]

I have the Vulcan SS PB on order today to. I expect a couple weeks for delivery. The 3 month wait on the Rep SS pushed me over the edge. If Duke said maybe a few more weeks would have made the decision harder.

My Vulcan SS PB shipped today. Says it will arrive Wednesday 11/28. Such a nice change from buying Kabuki's "in stock" power bar last Black Friday and waiting two months (and then getting a crappy bar).

Hopefully yours will show up this week as well. Fingers crossed that we get some nice bars man.

Reps for this I just ordered the EXP set from Powerblock directly hours before you posted this. I called up Powerblock this morning and asked if I could cancel and they said no problem. Also Gymsource is an Authorized Dealer and Powerblock will be supporting and making parts for the U90 Series for quite some time since it is a very popular product. I was able to get the U90 all the way to 90lbs for the same price as the EXP set up to 70lbs with free shipping to California.

[thejosef]

I pulled the trigger on the 120lbs Ironmasters.
I had it shipped to a parcel receiving company in a border town in the US.
Shipping 10 miles into Canada was $500usd, shipping 1 mile from Canada .....free
(There was also a $150ish option for international shipping)

Such a solid set of dumbbells.. and 120 lbs. is no joke. Congrats on the purchase!

Haha, I was only kidding about selling it. It's my daily driver for the unforeseeable future and even if REP delivers the more affordable stainless it would serve as an killer backup barbell. After this Black Friday I feel like I'm nearing the end of my home gym journey, it was the first time in nearly a decade where I didn't even read the sales ads for equipment. Only true plan I have left is to make a 13-15" squat stool for the belt squat machine with the extra seat pads I have lying around, then I want to shift my focus to building up my firearm skills/collection

Glad you're not selling that beauty. Ha. I feel the same about gym equipment, really. I'm at the point where my gym is full and I can do everything I need in there.. I mainly buy bars b/c they're so easy to store on the wall. Lol.

I would love to start a pistol collection, but man, that can get carried away quick! I don't wanna go down that road.. yet.. Good luck with that.

Glad someone took advantage of the sale. They had them at 20% off in-store during Black Friday, but they have stores only in DC & Atlanta.
I have the Sport 9.0 5-90 lbs set, so there is no real need to get the U-90s but I keep desiring them. Already maxed out my budget for this Black Friday so maybe next time.

Same here. The only bummer is that the 120lb expansion is on backorder for a couple weeks. Really excited to be able to do some heavy dumbbell pressing at home though.

[ubernoob]

I’m going to pull the trigger on the fringe sports 20kg wonder bar stainless steel as soon as PayPal updates all my information.

I thought about Rogue’s boneyard sales but I’m not willing to take that chance.

[Farley1324]

I hope Rogue doesn't put their deadlift bar on sale. I'm not lifting nearly enough yet to justify the purchase, but thanks to this place I've developed an equipment addiction and I might not be able to resist.

I ****ing bought one anyway. Hey, 5 for $5!


Rogue loves me now. Hadn't ordered with them since I got a bunch of stuff 2 years ago at this time. Three different 5 for $5 orders this year lol

[tmonkey]

Anyone else sick of all the rogue emails with the same ohio bar in different colors on sale

[Farley1324]

Yes. I kept hoping it was the stainless power bar or a deadlift bar. Nope. More ohio bar. Don't have one do't want one give me something else dammit

This.

At least go with Legend, Rep, Dynamic, or a one of the handful of other decent companies. Going from a Rogue purchase to a Titan purchase is only going to leave you kicking yourself in the future.

Agreed. For Rogue I guess no good deed goes unpunished. Some spoiled entitled folks out there

[Farley1324]

$50 ohio power bar but rogue's site is crashing... how are people checking out

even if i dont need it... can't pass up a steal

So I was playing around with the website throughout that whole ordeal working on an order, didn’t realize my problems were from that because I read my emails about 30 minutes after the sale. I missed the alert mail by about 5 minutes early. My brother who is just using a single cap ob86 would have been all over it. Oh well

Oh and I had ordered a Bella bar less than a week people could have used one at $50

[eddiegoodfellar]

Was it on back order in your cart, or did you have to wait until shipping confirmation?

I pulled the trigger and ordered one, can’t beat $299 for stainless steel and I can’t wait to get my hands on this bar.

Cool. Please share some pics and what you think. I'm quite curious about this one and reviews say it looks much better than the website photos. Lol.

One of my buddies who lives in Austin said I wouldn’t be disappointed with the bar. I asked him to go to the company and get a feel for it and he bought one himself so let’s see.

Bought 2 more of the Rogue SS Ohio Bars ($295 full warranty special) for other locations I live throughout the year (No tax to AZ). Have one already at my main home. Really like this bar for my needs. Would buy Rep bar stainless but not willing to take the chance for about the same price as Rogue once shipping is figured in. I already know the Rogue bar is flawless.


For racks/flat bench, Titan all the way, size/footprint are just right. May have to do a little back and forth with Titan but in the end you will be made whole. Just can't beat their prices with free shipping. Nobody else is close. Every time I looked at Rep, after considering shipping/footprint, I went back to Titan. Rogue, forget about it for Racks.

Nice call on the Rogue SS Ohio bars. They are phenomenal.

Good luck with the rack.

Anybody buy anything from Kabuki this year? Man, this forum was hot and heavy for them last year, but it's been all but silent here this year..

Their sale is still active. I've been debating getting a shoulderrok at 20% off but then I remind myself I don't need it

Well, I avoided buying any fitness equipment on BF but Palmetto State Armory's Cyber Monday deals pushed me over the edge. For $385 out the door (Tax + Shipping) I'm shocked at how close the specs on this build came to the Colt LE6920 (my original choice). I'm sure this price will inflate a little after buying ammo and a range bag but it seems like an affordable entry into the world of AR'15's that I can slowly modify on down the road. What do you guys think, did I make a mistake with my first semi-build (upper is technically already assembled)?

1) PSA Mid-Length 5.56 Rifle Kit $299.99 (MSRP $599)
- Nitride finished 4150V chrome moly vanadium 16" barrel, 1:7 twist
- Forged 7075-T6 A3 AR upper is made to MIL-SPECS
- Magpul MOE mid-length gray handguard
- Enhanced Polished Trigger (EPT) Kit
- Magpul MBUS Rear Backup Sight
- Magpul MOE Stock, Grip, and Trigger Guard (all stealth gray)



2) Anderson Manufacturing Stripped Lower Receiver $49.99 (Cabelas)
- Milspec hard-anodized finish, 7075 T6 aluminum



3) Three (3) Magpul PMAG 30 Gen 2 $32.47

[Farley1324]

PSA rifles are kind of like Titan racks, I think. Or something along those lines. It will probably do whatever you need it to, though the QC (where it counts) isn't up to somebody like Colt (and several others) and their customer service last I checked is basically non existent.

You need a bolt carrier group (BCG). Look for Carpenter 158 steel, shot peened. And a charging handle.

Good call on a mid length vs carbine length gas.

As recently as 6-7 years ago that rifle at that price would have been absolutely unpossible. The market is out****ingstanding as a buyer right now. Now get some ammo

You gave me a stroke there, thought for a second I ordered the wrong kit without a BCG. This one actually does include the BCG, it's carpenter 158 on the steel and the charging handle is included. I watched a TON of video's on these firearms, specifically a 5000 round test that it passed that a Daniel Defense failed which I thought was surprising. Also watched a couple videos to check the MOA and that was surprising as well, groups were 1.5-2" which seems fairly decent for the price. Let me know if you think I need something else, I thought it was pretty crazy for $299!
