Is this a good deal for a power rack and other included equipment?

[TC1087271]

So I came across an ad for a power rack with lat attachment, dip bar attachment, adjustable bench with leg curl attachment, olympic bar, over 500 lbs of olympic weights, assortment of handles and ab straps for $900. I spoke to the lister and talked him down to $700. He also said some of the weights and the bar are slightly rusted (which I don't think is a huge deal.)

I would love to have my own set such as this one for home use since I won't have to spend time commuting between gyms or waiting for the bench/power rack at the gym. My university has a gym but it is rather small and is packed at all times of the day. I could also wake up and just run into my gym in practically just pajamas and get everything out of the way before my long day.

Any input appreciated.

sounds very good to me. youre talking about a lot of weights and accessories for a pretty good price. Can get a comprehensive workout with that equipment and thats whats most important.

Not all power racks are good there are some very cheap flimsy ones. What is the brand and model # of the one he is selling?

dunno about the rack but its really gonna depend on the model. its kinda like everything else - you get what you pay for.

the deal for just the weights and the bar seem decent. new weights go for about a dollar a pound around here and a cheap bar is still like 60 or 80 bucks if i remember correctly. So were you to buy it new it'd be like buying all the weights and bar and getting everything else for a hundred bucks. not bad.

Ask him for brand/model on everything and check it out. if its cheap stuff you might want to hold out but if its occasional use and you're not moving huge amounts of weight (no offense - idk where you are at in that respect) then it might be worth it.
