[QUOTE=BulkMore;1521633511]Id like to have a nice standing preacher curl so I can do spider curls and regular preacher curls. I rarely ever see those pop up.[/QUOTE]
Believe Body Master's Standing one is the best of all due to rounded padding if you can find one.
I have Atlantis standing one but the padding is not completely rounded.
[QUOTE=RestoringTally;1521614471]One good use (about the only one I can think of) of a preacher bench is that it is a good place to hold your curl bar while you load it. :D[/QUOTE]
I had a Hammer Strength preacher curl for a while, sold it, bought a rackable curl bar and do curls off the reverse safeties.
Not a bad price on an Ohio Power Bar.

Couldn't stop myself from calling. Fella met me halfway, about twelve miles from my house.

not the first time i've seen calibrated plates out of Columbia. maybe it's Mizzou's weightlifting team? or they just have a more active competitive lifting community out there or something.

I had a full set of those plates, and the red 25kg's cracked around the lip seams on me from overhead drops :(. Granted, I was able to sell a CRACKED set for $450 lol

i mean, you're dropping weights that are 25kg from overhead...it's going to happen, right?

haha I guess? It's not like I threw them down. The Ivanko overhead drops were with not just 25kg plates alone there were also 20kg plates and change plates on the bar. If you google cracked ivanko bumpers, it's a common issue for them
Craigslist and thrift stores are seriously the best places to find old weight equipment. I've bought a total of 1,400 lbs for only about $500 (granted, it wasn't all at once. I've just been buying deals when I see them over the past 4 years)
Can't complain one bit

I've outfitted my entire gym with commercial equipment and about 4000lbs of vintage plates and dumbells over the past 5 - 6 years and used other peoples money to pay for all of it. You gotta love Craigslist.
i feel like someone was looking for one of these recently...

Sadly I have no room left in my gym or else I would buy it.

Free stuff. Nothing I'm interested in unfortunately

Doubt they are still available, but a lucky day for somebody. Ship Wheels and Deep Dish.

OMG some lucky person is going to get those for $250 when I browse sale-sites here in NC countless hours with no luck haha.
Edit**- I'm wondering also if the 25's leaning against the bench in the shadows are also DD... geez.
I'd like to buy a concept 2 rowing ergometer, there are a few concept 2 model ds in my area that go for around $650 with PM4. A seller is selling a Model C with a PM5 retrofit for around same price. Rest of the C appears to be original C equipment (seat, handle etc). Thing about the C is the photos show it in a garage, so might have some rust but I haven't looked at it in person yet as location is about an hour drive. Also the C is older, obviously. It looks fine in the photos, don't see any signs of issues. I'd like to pay no more than $500 for a C but maybe the PM5 is worth it? As far as ease of disassembly with model D I have mixed feelings as the C also seems to disassemble similarly but with more effort and I was planning on either leaving it on the floor or tilting it 90 degrees regardless. Is there a difference in sturdiness with the D, looks to be more modular. Can the quicker releasing mono rail fitting wear out on the D? I like how smooth the model Ds (as opposed to the Cs) operate but that might be more due to the amount of use the various gyms I have been to have put them through.
What are some things to look for? I was planning on checking the drag factor at various damper levels.
What would be the better option? New from Rogue for a Model D with PM5 would be $900 + $50 shipping.

They more look like 35's . The sellers was using Gold's gym's 25's. What a combo huhh.

What area do you live in? I have been watching concept 2 rowers for a long time now (and finally made the purchase yesterday) I have found that 700-750 for nice condition, black rower with PM5 is a good price, but can be had fairly often for 800. Model D with pm3-4 can be had for 500 - 650 at a good price, but can often be found for around 700-750.
I was very patient and got a model D (pm5) for $500, but that is not normal
For me, I was not that concerned with the upgraded monitor, since I just row for exercise. I do not row in the water, and really am not concerned with being an efficient rower. I could really care less about bluetooth, rowing apps, games, or whatever else the benefits of the newest monitor.. I just want to row for the exercise! I would get a model D over the C..
[QUOTE=cwcmac;1523938451]Any have an idea what a pair of these is worth (fair price, not to flip or anything)

Maryland area. I have seen in this area, Model A $200, B is $250, C is $400-600, D is $600-700. I might buy a new one from Rogue. I want it to be smooth. I had T4 and T5 laminectomy to remove a spinal cord tumor in 2016 and rowing feels so damn good, gets that area moving again.
I never understood the love affair with the PM5 - I mean it's nice, but I don't think it's worth the retrofit cost they charge for it.
Personally the PM2 was my favorite

Did the PM2 have the fish game on it? That alone causes my kids to ask to row a couple times a day :)

I love the fish game. I just ended up ordering a new gray one from Rogue, I like the two tone look over the black.
