I just emailed a contact I have from Singapore who is setting up a warehouse in the US to sell everything from Bumper Plates to Bands and K-bells... I can get stuff from him at about half of the average price I can get it stateside.

How soon do you need it? I'm pretty sure he's set up to ship right now. I will hear back from him tonight or tomorrow and get back with you on it as soon as I do.

Can you find out how much he'll charge for bumper plates? (Preferably 20kg)

They're bumpers. They're all the same size.
