Craigslist Shelving Find

[PaulR]

This seems like a decent deal, guy says he's got over 100, wheels and deals and bought thousands in the past.

I've seen cheaper, but these seem to be in great shape, I also see new all metal units go for ~$100 at the big boxes. What say you all?

I'm looking to fill my new garage with 5-6 of these. I'm going to take a look at them tomorrow. Anyone else in the Mass area looking to maybe getting a group buy together let me know.

looks like a solid deal to me

I have some of those and they are better than the typical box house 250 lb units but I would not call them industrial strength. They still wobble and the shelves to strain under heavy loads.

He's got another ad, better pics, more used units but they look more like the ones I would like:

It's hard to tell from the photo how 'industrial' they are. I had a bunch (50+) of those and couldn't get $5 ea. for them at a garage sale. Ended up trading them to a guy for scrap for hauling a bunch of other stuff for me.

I bought two of those along with one that's 4' wide and 7' tall with a solid back on it at an auction recently for $35. I wouldn't consider any of them "industrial" due to the fact that they are held together with screws and rack quite easily, even with the X bracing on the back.
