Lol, surry mate, must have you confused with another member.
He was trying to decide between a decent bar for $500 or a cheap china bar for $200.
Pretty sure he got the cheap one, then I thought he was getting a SSB!
That's just retarted as he should have just gotten a quality barbell.
Apologies.
I have a SSB, good if your shoulders are playing up, good mornings and PC work, but definately not a necessity.
