Please keep in mind these are not expandable. The expandable ones are about the same price when they go on sale.
I got the expandable ones two years ago but retrospectively I should have got those instead. I am not into weightlifting, I just want a bit of strength exercise and 50lbs is more than enough for that for the vast majority of people. The downside of the expandable ones is the lack of granularity in weight changing with the slider bar. You have to open some hatch and remove little steel weights inside which is a pain and most people will just not do.
This is not $500 regular price, maybe $350. Also doesn't look like the ones you can expand to 70 or 90lb either.

I have the expandable and I'm always a bit out of sorts when switching the roller weights out. Why did they make them tubes, they roll away. Stand them up and they get knocked over. Wish I had this set instead.

Besides the weight inserts, I love mine. Mine are the expandable ones. I just leave the extra weights out and work out like that, which I suggest for mostly everyone else. Plus the balance of weight is distributed better without them for many workouts.

I always think, should I buy these things, OR ...

Mow grass using a push lawn mower ...
Grow vegetables, digging dirt, manual labor ..

It is all hard work and exercise, now I no need to buy dumb bells or pay gym fees.

Brilliant!
I think similarly, but all that is really more a cardio substitute. Less opportunity to lift heavy things and properly without breaking things or hurting yourself because of those things odd size.

I prefer doing both. Laid patios, built porches, dug footers. Nothing but benefits if you embrace manual labor. But at the end of the day there are bonuses to lifting and targeting muscle groups that you can't get from the above. In fact if I wasn't also lifting while doing all that work I may have gotten a repetitive stress injury.

Lifting properly helps keep my old injuries, rotator cuff, herniated disks, etc at bay.

I have a set of 50 lb Pro EXP Powerblocks. THey are great howver if I knew what I know now, I would recommend get a whole set of rubberized hex dumbells if you have the floor space. Polwerblocks are my second set of adjustable dumbells - so much better than Bowflex 552s which I thought were too awkard for me to use. However it is quicker to grab a set of independent weights than keeping on adjusting all the time.

50 lb non expandables will be good for the vast majority of users. I am 52 years old and dont need to heft around heavy weights greater than 50 lbs. If I want to go heavy, Im using a straight barbell for bench press and squats.

Unfortunately for you, "price gouging" only applies to the following: fuel, food, medicine, lodging, building materials, construction tools, or other "Necessities". This is not a necessity my friend. So the law of supply & demand applies here.

Unfortunately for you, your pedantic criticism is wrong.

"Price gouging is the practice of increasing the prices of goods, services, or commodities to a level much higher than is considered reasonable or fair."

Great entry set up for your home gym. However I just wanted to add that these are awkwardly large and certain movements are just hard to achieve a full ROM.
Which exercises? I'd say on pressing movements they're fine but curls don't feel as natural. However, not as unnatural as BowFlex. Just curious what movements you had problems with.
