Costco has the black ones for $45 ($65 - $20 off sale). 2x Thicker uprights but smaller shelves (actual measurement of the shelves are most likely 1" less than what it says on the box, at least the black one I bought are and I'm 90% sure all of them come from the same factory because another store I measured the shelf and they too were 1" smaller shelves.)
The Edsale shelves were about $70 after BF, then like 4 weeks later they were $70, and now they're $60 after 2 weeks.
If you can wait, I'm sure it'll hit $50 again soon.
TLDR: Weak shelf, don't trust the weight limit. User error fcked up my shelf LOL
They are no where near "industrial" strength lol. Mine buckled into itself. Granted it was user error I admit. Bottom shelf NEEDS to be attached like you see in the picture. I thought it was an awesome idea to not put that bottom shelf on so I can easily slide stuff underneath it.
But nope, the top shelf had about 120lb and the board snapped in half and went between the wall and shelf, pushing it forward but the legs stayed put since it was on carpet. Then it just bent and toppled onto itself.
The weak point isn't where the vertical sides stack ontop each other (in my scenario at least). It was the bottom lol
The thickness is about the same as a dime. Imagine stacking two dimes ontop of each other on it's edge, that's how the vertical post stack on each other
All-in-all, I'd buy again, just attach the bottom shelf and it'll be a little sturdier and you won't be in my situation
OR
Get the black one, they're twice as thick (the metal uprights) but smaller in dimension (even though they list it as 24-in D x 48-in W x 72-in, it's really not). The shelves are actually 23 x 47".
Pictures so you can laugh at my fail.

Pictures so you can see the thickness of the metal and me testing 135lb in the center of the shelf. Thinking I was good to go, Lol I thought having 120lb distributed evenly on the shelf was a good idea. Boy was I wrong.

Conclusion: Buy more shelves to stack ontop of the existing shelves it comes with lol

The gray one you just use the shelf to connect the top and bottom.
Definitely worth it at this price! I'd get another if I had room... And might do so just to be able to pop a couple more shelves in there.
