No need to soak them like the previous poster. Wipe them down with paper towels and it will effectively eliminate the smell. Mine had a greasy coating on them, which wiping down took off and with it the smell.

Sold and shipped by Amazon. I think these are the same ones sold at Walmart. I snagged a 160 lb set few months back and I love them.
They shipped each plate individually. The package was destroyed on some plates but my plates were unharmed. They came in with a strong plastic smell. I put them in my bath tub with soap/water/vinegar for 2 days. That eliminated 90% of the smell. After 1-2 weeks the smell is pretty gone.
I tried to dry one of the plates with a towel after washing and the writing came off, so let them dry naturally then wipe the soap with paper towel or something.
But as a weight set, they are great. I don't do Olympics lifts, the most stress they go through is likely during my deadlift and they feel solid. Definitely don't use the 10s on their own. If you're just starting or warming up and need to deadlift 65, put the j-hooks on the lowest position in your rack.

Got these from Walmart on last slick deal. Took the cerakote coating off my rogue Ohio bar sleeves. Not completely, but scratched it good… make a weird sound going on the bar and damage was done.

Returned them asap

The Tru Grit plates from Walmart deal worked fine on my fancy bar.

If you have a cheaper bar/chrome bar, these should be fine.
Y'all downvote comments like this but it's legit. The collars on these bumpers have a sharp angle in them and they'll scratch coating off of Rogue barbells. Rogue specifically because they put that stupid fluting on their barbell sleeves. My rogue bar is raw steel, so I don't really care, but I don't use that bar with these plates because of the annoying noise. Bumpers like TruGrit have smooth rounded collars and are much more forgiving with plates with less finished collars.

I mean it's not literally the definition of inflation because the literal definition of inflation is an increase in the money supply. This is the original meaning of the word.

Don't let anyone tell you that inflation is merely price increases. They are obfuscating the role of the government in keeping monetary policy within sane limits.

If you create more money when the amount of goods hasn't increased, prices increase. It's that simple.

Unfortunately there are a lot of people with vested interests in masking the true cause of inflation.

If inflation (caused by the govt "printing" money) was due to companies just passing on the cost of goods to consumers ...how do you explain record profits scored by corporate America,

This deal on weights is good. $1 per lb. And they are bumpers....

Don't blame companies for causing problems that an inept and overgrown government has caused....

maybe don't buy anything or pay any bills for *2 weeks*.... help 'stop the spread' of inflation Big Grin
What i am speaking is about the entire corporate America....look at the quarterly reports,the numbers speakfor themselves.
Unless companies manufacturing weights are somehow feeling charitable towards theor customers to not overcharge.
BTW: can u be specific how the so-called "inept and overgrown" government has caused this ridiculous inflation in 2023 when all the monetary easing has long long gone?
FYI: I am not claiming the govt is not inept/overgrown.I am asking you to show the relation

It's just printed on (I have a set), if you hate it you could just get some sort of rubbing agent and rub it off

When you print new trillions, and then print even more to 'fight inflation' , inflation does not start or end immediately.... also that was a very long 2 week wait, it threw things off....

So, enjoy this Slick Deal on weights..... or not?
Have a good day Mr Grabber. May we all live/spend within our means. Debt is bad. Being Debt-free is excellent.

If you need weights, especially bumpers. This price per lb, with free shipping, is as good as it gets.
[Now, keeping track of the shipment and making sure every piece arrives, and dealing with customer support, is another thing... leave detailed delivery notes for them]

The bar which comes as bundle is good or buying separately is better ?

If you look on slickdeals separately for a 7ft / Olympic bar, might be better price elsewhere for the bar itself. You'll also need clamps on the ends of the bar. Those are cheap on Amazon [keep in mind, the normal bar is 45lbs and there are smaller lighter ones, usually considered 'ladies' bar. 2inch diameter also is what youre looking for. ]
