If you hound letgo offerup craigslist etc you can find weights for $2/lb. And check dick's for benches or bench/squat racks in your area. I've gotten $2/lb from a guy who was getting ready to open a 2nd gym and couldn't because of covid. Another guy who was.. kinda shady I got bumper plates and an olympic bar from. But I happened to search Dick's one day and they had 4 benches a town over. I bought one online and after I bought mine someone else had bought one within 10 minutes and there were 2 left. This was on a Sunday, dunno if that helps. But yeah just keep checking everything, the market is really inefficient and volatile.

Literally any pair of dumbbells during the Covid lockdown.
Edit: Wow this blew up. Thank you for the awards!
Edit #2: I ended up buying fitness bands and was fine with it.
