This guy on FB marketplace is selling this adjustable dumbbell for $115. It has 40lbs and is in pretty good condition. Only thing is there is no clips. Should I buy it and figure out a way to keep the weight from falling off? Any ideas? Thanks.

You know what I haven't commented on a thread in years but this frustrated me on another level. Think about the question you just asked and then pay attention to the fact you answered your own question already and just go buy the fucking clips are you 12

Get $115 in pennies and put them in a sock and lift thag

>in years

And THIS is the post that bothers you!? Yeah he's a dumbass but there have been posts 100x dumber than this.

The bar looks like trash. It's not knurled and it's hollow. I'm not sure about the plates. But even if they are iron and rubber instead of plastic and sand, 40lbs of them isn't worth $115.

Okay I looked up the plates. They seem nice but I'd never pay that much personally. Don't know about the bar. The lack of (probably broken) collars tells me it's still worthless though.

You are fucking retarded if you pay that

OP here. Thanks everyone for the advice. I've decided to not buy it as it is not worth it. Love you bros

So it's microplates and a couple pieces of metal

Clips won't fit on that non standard bar moron

i mean

this, stop being a pussy just lift raw copper blocks

I made a thread about lifting scrap iron and it died immediately ;_;

Real struggle tryna run between my stashed iron though. Don't want the railway cops to throw it away

Imagine actually considering paying that much for one shitty dumbbell with no clips

That's because it was a dumb thread. Had you taken the homegym pill sooner you wouldn't be getting lock-jaw from scrap metal.

There's a vaccine for that.
And at least I'm not paying triple digits for one dumbbell.

Go check them out then return at night and steal them. Dont be a idiot.

Lmao sucks being poor.

>getting (((vaccines)))

Ngmi

Also: how is anymore this shit functionally different from designated free weights? Are you afraid the gravity will leak out if it isn't rubber-coated?

Broke.
Poor is a mindset.
Also my company gym was fucking great until we got the plague.

Massive decrease in ROM for one. Number two is it's a fucking rusty mosquito trap that should be thrown in the trash, Three is it's maybe 20lbs lmao.

You poor nigger, get a job and spending $500 adjustable dumbbells during a time of low supply won't mean shit.

I refuse. If I can't borrow or steal it from my employer, it isn't worth having.

If you stalk Amazon, those 200 pound adjustables come in stock semi-often, but get bought up quickly by scalpers who resell them on eBay for over a thousand dollars
They go for a little over 1$/lb new on Amazon though

Keep filing in the poverty class faggot.

Please. The worst thing you can do with money is spend it.

Extremely based if you're actually swole.

That’s a shit fucking deal. I got dumbbells without weights for $15 then got $100 of weights for $50

Two of these badboys will fix you right up for improv clips
