Ive found that the plates to be the most expensive here, that pretty much the only thing holding me back. The cheapest ive found it about $1.2/lb (canadian) but i need at least 1000lbs, that may not be enough if me and my girlfriend are training at the same time either.
I have been using a shitty bench, no power rack,
and a standard bar rated to 140kg , its definatley not perfect, but it does the job, but training alone in my garage I would like the safety of a cage

yeah plates are the most expensive, the ones i am getting, rubber coated with the ez grip handles are $2.95/kg (Aussie)
If i was as strong as you I couldnt afford it either
