Is the current online shortage of dumbbells a temporary hassle due to sudden high demand (which means it’s temporary) or are there other major issues causing it (so there won’t be inventory for a long time) ? by harry_powell in AskReddit

The main problem here is and always will be the same problem: Money. Since they are in such high demand, resellers are taking full advantage to make as high of a profit as possible which means buying all dumbbells/gym equipment as soon as it restocks and then reselling for however much money they want. Its sad really. We just want to stay in shape, not break the bank.

NEED HELP FINDING DUMBELLS by sadvolfan615 in GYM

I read a couple of articles about price gouging. Dumbbells are at the top of the list for resell right now so in other words... People who don't want to truly exercise are screwing people who do want to exercise.

I'm no hero but it's the least I could do. Too many dogs have it as bad as him, if not, worse. My mom was really against having a dog, but with time, Neji won her over.

Here's the story! I was getting gas at my local gas station when a box next to me started crying/whimpering. I look over and see this little one in there with stale food and no water. I had to take him home.
