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.

With recent gym downsizing my new goal is:
Iron Plates - 6x45; 2x35; 2x25; 4x10; 4x5; 4x2.5 + Rogue Calibrated Plates
Bumper Plates - 2x45; 2x25; 4x10; 4x5; 4x2.5; 4x1.25
Technique Plates - Eleiko, Hi Tech Plates
Standard Plates - 2x50; 2x10; 4x5; 4x1.25
