Since amazon listing didn't have these:

5-Foot: 5 feet long (60-inch), 2" bar end diameter, black zinc plated, bar weight: 25 pounds;
6-Foot: 6 feet long (72-inch), 2" bar end diameter, black zinc plated, bar weight: 36 pounds;
7-Foot: 7 feet long (84-inch), 2" bar end diameter, black zinc plated, bar weight: 45 pounds;
A lot of the bars are made in China from Titan, Rep Fitness, Xmark, etc
The 7ft one has a 700lb capacity.

This offers standard Olympic bar specifications. 2inch diameter for Olympic plates, 45lb bar.

I'm sure 90% of ppl will not be going past 200lbs, this would be a good addition to a simple home gym.

You think that '700lb' capacity some no name dropship company put in their description mean anything? Force from moving weights is completely difference than putting 700 pounds of stationary weight on a table.

My experience with shit bars, they bend and the collars lock up or fall off. I would cheap out on weights, but money spent on a quality bar is well worth it.

And Bentley makes amazing cars; just because a product is being posted here that isn't top of the line doesn't make it a bad deal for people who understand what they are getting. Your feedback and input would be valuable to serious lifters where superior quality is required, but I am of the opinion those folks already know what they need and want.
Not to mention Rogue will sell you a "second quality" bar for $200 compared to $60 for this one. I am saving up for a Rogue bar, but I bought a BalanceFrom EZ Curl bar on sale and it has been quite serviceable.

Link to the Titan that people are recommending?

I'm looking for a simple Olympic bar with standard weight and dimensions.

7' is in every gym in every part of the world. The shorter ones are for kids.
Yea...maybe so. Can accommodate the most people that way when using the largest, but it might not be the most comfortable or space efficient for a smaller home user.

Rage has a 100ish dollar 15 lb bar which would be adequate for a decent amount of people for home gyms. I'd trust them.

The reality is that if you are liftin < 3 plates (315lb), these bars are fine. If you are lifting more (benching) you shouldn't be at home with a $60 bar in the first place.

their boneyard bars work 100% identical to their brand new ones or they won't sell them. they sell them at a discount because they have a minor surface imperfection that doesn't affect any performance

It's just that your position is absurd. If you want a whippy deadlift bar, spend hundreds on one. If you want the perfect knurl, spend hundreds on one. If you want sleeves that rotate smoothly, spend hundreds on one. If you want that perfect fit and finish, spend hundreds on one. But suggesting that a value bar is somehow unsafe to the crowd that's shopping fitness equipment on slickdeals is nuts. It's an absurd position with zero evidence.

And I'm doing great! Thanks for asking!

doesn't seem like you're doing great if you are willing to buy the bottom of the barrel made in china unknown quality, no long term reputation workout equipment that you'll use to life hundreds of pounds of steel above your head.

Not to mention that these hundreds of pounds of steel I'm lifting above my head are also bottom of the barrel and made in China! They're likely going to EXPLODE!

Sure, but don't expect to find any rack to support the shaft.
