I had a pair of 10s that got lost in the mail and Barbell Standard replaced them for free! The plates I recently received also seemed to have smoother edges than the previous version, which is indicative of higher quality.

Barbell Standard is a great company
Jared from Barbell Standard is great to deal with. The company seems to always run sales on their products throughout the year. The shipping was extremely fast and the items arrived undamaged.

Great customer service but some shipping problems
The equipment itself is amazing and has that classic look and feel to it. Only issue is my last two orders haven't showed up, however one was refunded and they are working on the other. The customer service is also amazing and respond quickly to emails.
Review Edit - 5 stars now, customer service helped me through and made sure my order arrived.

It’s taken over 6 months and I still haven’t received my weights
UPDATE: Apparently under new management after a sale, the new team got this settled up quickly and painlessly.

Scam
Scam. Bought 2 sets of 45s in june, never got them, and reached out in august and they said they would come within 2 days. It’s December and over 7 emails sent later not a single one answered and still no weights or refund.

Scam. Do not order.
Placed an order for a pair of 45lb plates on July 12, 2022. Item never shipped. Support lied when contacted. Money was never refunded.

Jeffrey,
My apology for the late reply. I've made sure this order was refunded. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
New ownership edit Feb 17, '23: Please reach out to us at 888 979 0382 if there is anything we can do to make this right.
Still nothing after months.
Absolutely horrible experience and customer service. I pre-ordered 2 pairs of 45 milled iron plates on July 12th. I understand that pre-orders can take a few weeks/months so I went into it knowing that I would be waiting a bit. Every month I emailed checking for an update, and was told that my order would be "delivered for certain" that month. After September ended, I have been repeatedly ignored via email and can't get in touch with anyone. I have tried to give them leniency, but after so many failed promises, I cannot and will not recommend them to anyone.

Good quality weights great customer service
Good quality weights. Great service. Thank you to Michael M. He was patient and responsive. One of my plates was lost in the FedEx system, Michael then immediately sent out another one and it was aldo lost in the FedEx system . Both times where at the Fedex Bloomington hub. ( not standards fault).
Anyways Standard barbell didn't have any plates at the time, then when they did Michael sent one right away.
Thank you again for the great customer service.

I was skeptical when I saw the price but I ordered 2 barbells and a few pairs of 10lb and 25lb plates. All packages were delivered within a week and all in great condition. I will definitely look to Barbell Standard when I’m ready to purchase some more.

Weight plates
I got a pretty good price for the weights and overall they look fine. What I don't like about them is overall dimension and shape. Outside edges are not perpendicular to the line that goes through the center, which is kind of odd. Luckily, it is not going to touch the ground, so it is not that big of a deal. Other things that could be better is that some edges came with chips in them and paint job has drips here and there. Still good for the price.
