Wright Exercise has rubber-coated Hampton 2.5 lb. plates for $1 each, new. No fives, so I'll just get a bunch of 2.5's...

Load eight of them in the cart, $8, twenty pounds... and the shipping calculator says $32. LOLwut? I got matched pairs of 45 pound 18" diameter 2" thick rubber weights shipped for less than that.

Gotta call them tomorrow, someone said their online system is fucked, but it's past closing time.

This should be fun... the guy from New England, with a very mild Bostonian accent, calling the store located way down in Alabama. :awe:

The guy who posted the information initially said he ordered the same eight discs, got an estimate of 27 (compared to my 32), called and got them shipped for 12. If I can get them shipped for 14, that'd be a total of 22, which means about $1.1 per pound, which is pretty acceptable for new stuff.

six is right. Step away from the white horse -- trust me, it gets you nothing but headache, heartache, and hurt.

Most of them are probably right. I think im too stubborn. :( Oh well. I honestly think it won't be that big of a deal so that's how im going to handle it

why do old nef threads get closed and new ones keep popping up?

The administrators think really large threads were causing problems and closed them down. Since they moved part of the infrastructure to the cloud, it'll be interesting to see if they let this one go.

Take it from experience -- girls play their "bad luck" for all it is worth and use it to manipulate guys. They like the drama.

Yeah I agree with you but those will say stuff about their past a lot sooner. Just to make you feel sorry for them . I brought it up and then she told me.
