Shadow....UPDATE ..

Well, I DID get the package today. I have to say, I was VERY disappointed. Not what was described. I was told that there were 4 hubs, nice wheels and tires. One of the tires is so dry rotted, it can't be used. All 4 rims are damaged in one way of the other from use. A little scuff or whatever is understandable, but these have some bends in the edges.  I was told there would be two matching rear tires, and two matching front tires. All 4 are different. No hubs in the package, and the damaged rims aren't from being shipped. Total disappointment.


SHADOW, I'd like my money back, plus the shipping charges if you want these  wheels and tires back. Thanks for wasting a month of my life waiting on you. Fix this problem now, not in 4 or 5 weeks.

I expected some scuffs, scratches, tires to be a little worn, as they are used......but these are just ready for the dumpster. Perhaps I have higher standards of "good shape" than others. I doubt that,though. The more I look at them, the more pissed I get. All the time I waited. All the Pm's and messages. Man, all that for .

Thanks Jerry. If I were the seller, I would've done the following after receiving the funds........... Looked at the wheels to be sent...noticed that they were , then issued a quick refund with an apology for thinking they were better than they were. Sometimes, you can send a part to the buyer, thinking in all honesty that it was a good part. I have done that. THEN, upon receiving the part, the buyer states that it was wrong, or it didn't work, to which I will immediately make it right either by issuing a refund, or sending a replacement part. But never, ever, have I sent total useless stuff all the while knowing that I was doing the buyer wrong.

Sadly, after the past few weeks of waiting and asking questions, and seeking replies, I have to say. I am not surprised. Too many red flags started popping up one after the other after the payment was sent. But the money was out of my hands by them.

There's nothing to handle. Send my money back, plus shipping if you want this mess back. Easy. My business ethics are apparently a lot different than yours are.

If Shadow doesn't get banned for this , I don't know what it would take........
Good luck in your "business" ventures if this is your business model.

I can't spend the time, effort, and funds to repair these damaged wheels as you implied. They should never have been sent. Bad business here. Not cool. Make it easy. Send my money back, plus shipping if you want to sell these to some other sucker.

Wait until this evening, and I'll post pics of them. He told me I could repair and straighten them if I desired. That kind of defeats the purpose of buying something.

Who is PB you spoke of. You told me that you sent them personally. Was "PB" the person who was supposed to package everything? What the ____ is happening here? I'll make it all better in one sentence.....

SEND MY MONEY BACK.

It would appear that somebody should take this oppurtunity to man up, and do what's right.

I still don't understand why anyone would want to try to pull a fast one like those on Vinnie, he's gone out of his way many times for a lot of people here including myself. I just don't get it.... make it right Chris...

He can't even man up and admit he sucks at life so I wouldn't hold my breath on him doing the right thing.

This is sad to see on this forum.  Usually  like this is reserved for larger forums like corral, etc.  Usually swift action is taken to remove individuals like this from the forum entirely or at least from selling, buying, etc.  Looks like our mods are on top of this issue and hopefully Vin gets his money refunded ASAP.  If not I would imagine the ban stick shall make sure justice is served.
