I somehow lost a bunch of plates in a move recently, would these be cheaper to just go buy at a store? I'd assume even amazon bakes something into the price to ship these.

They are actually a good deal its less than $1/LB
Fitness stores or places like Target/Walmart that sell weight plates will always charge $1+/lb unless they are on clearance. If you dont want to pay for that. You can just check out Craigslist or FB Marketplace for better prices

You'll almost definitely pay more retail, it's usually over $1/lb. You can check your local Craigslist, sometimes people will sell their weights cheap but it's a toss up. If you're not in a rush every few months they will drop to ~0.70/lb but generally just for a day or two so you have to stay on it, especially for smaller packages like this (sub 200lbs)

I hve never once seen a good deal on Marketplace, offerup, craigslist anywhere. Everyone still thinks its covid and they can charge $5/lb gotten way better deals buying new plates at Walmart the everyday essential bumpers were a steal several times this year and I am sure will be again.
the Fitvibs are huge. I ordered a few last black Friday thinking of using the 10's on dumbbells and the 10 are like the diameter of normal 25's the 25's like 35's ETC they are just large. probably for barbell work who cares just throwing the FYI out there!

I guess it depends on the area. In my area there's a shop that refurbishes and sells used gym equipment and I found them on craigslist. They sell plates at $0.50/lb. Their are scratched up but they work (center hubs aren't cracked or anything)

*edit* nm, difference size holes for the plates.
(Length refers to diameter of center hole)
