Looking at my equipment purchases over the last two years, I noticed some interesting stuff.
The used market in 2020 was gone and I purchased most items new as they became available.
In 2021, the used market started to open up and after January nearly all my purchases were used. I grabbed a few items through March. Then we moved. Starting in September, the used market picked up as people returned to commercial gyms and liquidated home equipment. I did buy a new barbell from Eleiko.
In 2022, the buying binge has continued with large footprint items that necessitated splitting the gym. I am still on the lookout for dumbbells (at $1/pound) and possibly an adjustable bench. I am always on the lookout for unique items pertaining to physical culture. One of my favorite search terms is strongman. I also am a big fan of grip implements. The only functional item that catches my eye are a set of fractional plates. If SYQQ gets there act together, I will buy a set of their collars.
