They're supposed to be 52.5 pounds each. One was 47. One was 48. I feel ripped off.

I broke mine.  I fell getting onto the bench and broke the tabs off of 5 or 6 of the rings which pick the weights up.  I spent a ton of money to buy a replacement handle and parts for the other.  Only to find out that the tab of one of the large weights is broken off.  I cannot find a replacement weight.  

Pissed me off when I bought them though.  About a month after I bought the 552's, the 1090's came out.  The 552's are good for shoulder stuff, but all buy useless for me for any presses.  But, I bought them thinking it was my best option to get the low end set of weights anyway.  I would sell them and get the 1090's, but I need to find the part before I can.

What did you weigh them on?  Personally I would blame the scale rather than the weights, assuming you used just a bathroom scale.  They are rarely calibrated correctly.  You need a true weight scale.

Oh look, a kenny, i have found.
He likes his tits, all firm and round.
He's old as hay,
Some think he's gay.
His hair is purdy, it touches the ground.

Spring-loaded bathroom scale, but they didn't FEEL like they were 52.5 anyway. They felt lighter than the 50 pounders I used at the gym the other day.
