So heres my question: am I being a completely unreasonable assh0le for asking $1300 total for the wheels, shipping and PayPal included?

I would have thought that roughly 30% off of brand new, NICE wheels with free shipping and PayPal fees would have been a pretty good deal, especially when that is the price you pay for most cheaper quality wheels.

But people are pm'ing me like I'm a **** for asking for that much. I'm like, well my uncle just gave me a Rolex for Christmas, does that mean I'm obligated to give it to you for free now just cause you want it? They should have jumped on the deal when the wheels were $550 FFS.

FVCKING GRRRRRRR.

It's a hard sell when everyone knows what you got them for. You should have sat on them for a bit and then posted them up when everyone forgot what a deal they missed.

I'd say join Nicoclub or my350z and pitch them there. Or just craigslist em.

Thanks brother.. dude, ask Triple to edit your FS thread, he'll do it for you.

Huck · 12-26-2012, 04:13 PM

Yeah I've got them on Craigslist and I've gotten a few ******** offers for them ("hey, I've got some 17" TSW's that were in an accident, would you trade straight up?") so I'll probably make a profile in the 350 site and list them there. I've also got them up on my Audi forum an on an Orlando forum as well...

I was just wondering if I'm being unreasonable and don't realize it. Am I?

Yeah, I knew you got a great deal on those things, but I don't blame you for selling them at their value. You're not being an arse..you're just turning over a great product at a discounted price.

I recall that I bought an exhaust/intake combo for a sick price, and when I went to piece them out individually for sale, one member called me out on it..but whatevers. If the product is quality and the demand is there..it doesn't matter. Someone will buy it.

Just my $.02 worth.

So just got back a little bit ago from the junkyard. I was like a kid in a candy store.

Yeah really, what did you find? There is NOTHING around anymore.

Alright folks, I'm gonna order the calendar now.

Total of 25 copies, including 1 copy for myself.

Here is an image of the invoice:

I paid that with my paypal account already.

The cost for each calendar is CAD$9.74 + about CAD$2.50 postage, some of you have order more than one copy thus I will calculate the total for each individual after I mail everything.

I will receive the calendar on the 2nd or 3rd of Jan. And I will ship them out right away!!!

I feel a little bad because if we place the order before Christmas we can save about $1 to $1.50 per calendar.

But the price CAD$9.74 is still much cheaper than at the beginning ($14.99 - $18.99)

Yes... I am excited...

m4a1mustang · 12-26-2012, 05:24 PM

Huck,

You got a good deal on your wheels. You were smart. Don't let anyone guilt you into selling it lower because your cost was so low.
