i just heard a rather ridiculous ad slogan:

BowFlex SelecTech: dumbbells for smart people.

it's not smart to pay as much as they're charging for those dumbbells. the cheap ones are $149...and the pricey ones are $599.

six hundred dollars? for dumbbells? really?

if you need multiple dumbbell weights, it still seems a lot cheaper to buy the individual sets of plain, cheap dumbbells at the weights you like to use. in fact, it's probably also cheaper to buy a gym membership than to buy such pricey dumbbells.

they're dumbbells for people who have more money than sense.

Dumbells for dumbells probably didn't test as well with focus groups though...
