Has anyone come across a good deal for either Powerblocks or Selecttech (Bowflex) adjustable dumbbell systems online?

I having a lot of trouble sourcing them locally (Southern Cal) and may have to look to buy online. Given the weight factor, free shipping is highly desirable (a must really) to make it cost effective.

Just wondering if anyone has come across a smoking deal or two.

Thanks.

I was in your shoes a ways back. I looked everywhere, and could not find free shipping on powerblocks, was always about $60 or something. So you're going to get whammied with shipping or tax if you buy instore.

I did not like the select tech stuff at all.

I ended up with ironmaster dumbbells ( http://www.ironmaster.com/stor...Lock-Dumbells-c-1.html ).

There are rarely deals, and never smoking deals on this stuff.

My best suggestion, check out craigslist and ebay for local deals; you will be surprised how good of a deal you can get on used adjustable dumbbells. I also picked up an ironmaster bench with all accessories and dumbbell spotter for like 1/3 retail price off local ebay auction. Lots of deals out there.

Happy hunting.
