Plans:
  • Urethane Plates - 475# - Finish Build out of Intek plates with 5s and 2.5s?
  • Crumb - 360# - No change
  • High Density Rubber - 480# - Love all of these, might get 22nd tactical 35s
  • Collectable Iron Plates - 915# - Opportunistic buys only
    • York - 310 (milled, Hercules) - Keep
    • Universal - 170 - need 35s and 2.5s to finish
    • Billard - 140
    • Schisler - 90
    • AFA Falcons - 90
    • International - 75
    • BFCO - 20
    • USA - 20
  • Modern Iron Plates - 252.5# - would like to get 55s for Dinnie Lift
  • Change Plates - 70# - Good
  • Fractional Plates - 5# - Good
  • Technique Plates - 30# - Good
  • Kilo Plates - 150.7# - Get 10kg and 15kg?
  • Standard Collectible - 250# - Opportunistic
  • Standard Pig Iron - 104# - Good

Going Forward.  I like having crumb bumpers and high density rubber.  They have unique feel and bounce.

Metal Plates are a different story.  I would like to stay at (6) pairs of 45s, (2) pairs of 35s, (2) pairs of 25s, (4) pairs of 10s and unlimited 5s and 2.5s.  I would like to stick with collectable plates and get a pairs of Zuvers, Berg, Jackson, Eleiko, Paramount, Thor, Lou Ferrigno, Viking, Cougar and other unique and interesting plates.  I would not mind owning Ivanko or Troy plates.  I occasionally covet calibrated plates (55s in particular)

I do not expect to be actively looking for equipment.  A pair of 3rd Generation Jackson 45 pound plates recently changed hands in the neighborhood of $3000 (around $30/pound).  A pair of Zuver 100 pound plates moved north of $25,000.  At some point, I may be seeking historically significant plates at auction.  This is not happening today..
