I'm looking for just the set you listed.

I've been rolling on a spare for over a week, and have been looking for the diamond black BBS wheels with tires on them already.

I'm in Buffalo, New York, you mentioned you might be willing to meet to sell these, how far west would you be willing to go to meet me?

Please call 716-****

and we can discuss, if we can make this work out, I'd like to get them on my EVO and get my winter tires mounted on my VIII wheels.

thanks

Hi, I would be willing to drive for about 100miles at most. you are about 380 miles away from me. Let me know. or I can just ship it to you for 150 more.


Buyer Mis4tun81 Sent Sept 18, 2007

I dont mind the driving, I'm just not a big fan of shipping wheels.

Are the original tires on them, any scratched or curb rash.

$1300 is a little more than I was thinking of spending, there are MR wheels going for $800 - $900 a set and $1000 with tires.

If they are in perfect condition would you take $1100 for them with the tires, and I'll meet you anywhere that makes sense How far is Scranton PA from you?

Let me know what your thoughts are.

Thanks


and thanks for getting back to me.

Yes it is the original advan tires on them. There is no damage on the tire and no curb rash. As for the price I listed, I have researched about what a fair price for them would be. I've seen bbs the non se edition for around 1000 w/ tires but w/ a lot less tread then mine. Mine is the diamond black bbs. Scranton PA is abit to far for me. its about 2 hrs away.


Buyer Mis4tun81 sent Sept 19, 2007

I'm still interested, if you could come down a little on price. I'd be willing to make a trip over this weekend.

Let me know

Thanks

Seller Jordanz3 sent Sept 19, 2007

1200 is a deal if you don't mind driving all the way to my house.


Buyer Mis4tun81 sent Sept 19, 2007

That will work. I'll take them for $1200 and meet you out there.

I can make the drive saturday, give me a call 716-**** and we can set it up.

Thanks

Seller Jordanz3 sent Sept 28, 2007

so sorry, I sold to someone local.

Buyer Mis4tun81 sent Sept 28, 2007

wow, I don't know what to say.

it doesn't get any more dishonest or un-ethical than that.

we had an agreement for almost 2 weeks, and I have followed your instructions to the letter. You wern't available last week, so I waited a week as you instructed. and I get this message the day before I was supposed to pick them up from you.

Very disapointed, that was very un-ethical of you,, I would have been happy to send you a deposit if you had asked, or come earlier, if you wanted the money sooner.

Or I could have been on another set of wheels.
