Deal is back. 60lb pair tends to go out of stock relatively quickly. There are other pair options available. $1/lb shipped is an excellent deal for those looking to fill out their dumbbell sets.
QA Note: 60lb OOS, see FP for additional purchase options
I don't think you're the only one who gets heavy things delivered by the delivery person.. He/she will understand.
I ordered two 55s a few months back and Wal Mart sent four 35s. It was a complete pain in the ass trying to get their customer service to sent two return shipping labels, probably literally 8-10 different requests to their customer service at 20 minutes each.
I've never had good luck buying from WalMart online but anything bulky isn't worth the hassle in my experience. Of course this was just a single incident and you probably won't be as unlucky as I am.

I usually just return it back to any Walmart and let them deal with the shipping label.
Ordered the 60's. Literally paused for 5+ mins feeling bad for the FedEx person and trying to figure if I really wanted it enough or not.
I work in shipping/receiving. The heavy stuff UPS and Fed Ex move definitely isn't their favorite. But the worst part they and we hate most is if they put something heavy inside a box with no support, banding or just better packaging to begin with. That is the ridiculous part, when whatever it is is spilling or poking out. Way harder to move then
How are these packed for shipping? Double boxed? Do they arrived undamaged?
I have ordered Amazon Basics dumbbells multiple times and they are always packed very well - double boxed - two heavy boxes - with foam around the dumbbells. The only issue with Amazon Basics dumbbells is they always need a solid 2-3 months in the garage to get the smell to dissipate.
You might get imbalanced weights and can't exchange them. I weight-scaled about 30 of them in-store and some were below or over 1-2lbs the correct amount. The manager at my local Walmart doesn't let me exchange them because online, they are sold as "2-pack" or "pairs", and they "only sell them as singles in store". And of course, they won't price match because of the same reason. These are a pain to return.. Just some stuff to keep in mind.

I ordered some kettlebells and they came wrapped with one of those heavy duty bands that they use for the boxes on refrigerators. I'd say they know that just a box won't work.

Decent deal, it'd be slick if it was below $0.99/lb

If you're ready for 100lb dumbbells then it's likely time to invest in a power rack/barbell, my friend
