Hey guys,
Just wondering if you guys think this is a good deal? I'm planning to set up a new home gym /w a Power Rack. I was looking at getting this combo from Ebay: http://www.ebay(dot)com.au/itm/FORC...6?pt=AU_Strength_Training&hash=item4acfd7d1ba, but I heard it's not really worth it since I'll probably outgrow the weight limit (Although I doubt I'll go much higher than 150kg).
So I was looking at (Option 1):
http://www.gymdirect.com.au/item/4-Package-Deal-_-Power-Rack--+-ASFID-FID-bench-+-Olympic-bar-+-80kg-Olympic-weights-$1150/531.htm
+Dip Attachment ($65)
+Sydney Postage ($75)
Comes to $1290, although I would prefer to have it a little lower if I could since I'll probably need to consider flooring mats and other auxiliaries.
I was also looking at this one (Option 2):
http://www.littleblokefitness.com.a...rack-fid-bench-152kg-standard-plates-package/
This comes with 152KG Weight Package vs Option 1 80kg Weight Package. The cage is advertised to take a load of 400kg, while the MMPR (Option 1) is rated at around 320kg. It also looks like it comes with a dip attachment but not 100% sure. This option also comes with a standard bar, not an Olympic bar. With AUSBB Coupon & Postage, it totals:
$1,228.71.
What do you guys think? It looks like Option 2 is the winner, but is it really? Am I able to get a discount with gym direct?
Finally, just wondering when it gets delivered... How big will the package actually be? I'm planning to transport it in my sedan once it gets delivered to my rent's place.
Cheers.
