He sounds like a scum bag, then you'd be out almost $400 with nothing to show for it :mad0259:
Just sounds like a clueless schmuck to me.
Bought '08 Passat used, immediately threw 18" Drag wheels on it, wanted to sell stock wheels and recoup costs of cheap aftermarket wheels.
Don't think he ever looked at these wheels closely enough to realize that they've been sanded down in spots and repainted to hide curb rash. Unfortunately, he listed these wheels as being in great condition and super clean.
I'm not angry with him, he's just stupid, and I'm overly anal about my wheels.
Other option is, I pursue some sort of compensation through Paypal and sell the wheels locally.
