Double stack weight uses steel side frames. I bought both of my sets for about $400 with a double stack starter and the two side frames. The slabs themselves way about 80 lb and i usually paid $80 a piece or a dollar per pound. There's another 250 lb with the starter and brackets.

I wouldn't pay more than $600 for that set up. One thing to note is that the fabricated steel brackets that are used with the double stack weight can also be used with a suitcase weight bracket. If you are going to throw them on and off, I would buy the set up and install the suitcase weight bracket and keep the double stack bracket for when I retired the machine permanently to collector status. If you're going to leave them on it should be okay we run the double stack with 6 weights on our 4020.
