Rogue is a bit more expensive, but you can get free shipping on a lot of stuff, and their quality and guarantees are top notch. Just my experience, YMMV. I've always been of the mindset to pay for the quality equipment and only buy once, instead of going for the bargain and having to replace more than once.
The difference here is home gym/and commercial gym. Although I agree completely with your reasoning; I'm not sure if I would recommend all Rogue gear for limited use by one person. I would however say that Rogue bars are worth the money spent.
