Set Of Rx8 Rims On Ebay Misadvertised. Ending Oct-13-07 - Mazda 6 Forums : Mazda 6 / Mazda Atenza Forum

I don't know where to put this, but figured I would try to warn anyone that was going to buy these from this guy. Unfortunitly I beleved him when he said they were in perfect condition:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...147643&rd=1
but luckaly I went and looked at them and they all had scrathes on them and were far from perfect.

Here is the relisting:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MAZDA-RX8-O...1QQcmdZViewItem

My feedback is not 100% anymore because this guy is a liar, but at least I did not get them shipped to me to find that they were scrathed up so in that case I saved myself $530 plus the $100 shipping would have been. I will have to think twice now about buying used rims. I feel bad for the person that wins them this time...just hope its not one of you...well if it were Jdragon I wouldn't mind...just kidding!

holy shit, good looking out. You just saved me from getting ripped off.
I just got an email back from him for a buy it now and I sure am glad I jumped on here before sending any money.
He claims only one small scratch less than the size of a dime, what an assclown for lying.
I even asked why the last auction didn't go thru and he claimed that the buyer (you) couldn't come up with the funds.
You should file a complaint with ebay and try and get that feedback retracted.
Thanks again.

damn i just got some rx-8 rims, not great condition for $300 shipped... BETTER OFF GO ON WWW.RX8CLUB.COM and buy there.

I got mine last week for 500 w/ tires. A 2 hour drive was well worth it!

Good Im glad I posted than!
I had the cash in my pocket. He is a lier and he lives in springfield MA so he is a peice of crap. 2 rims hav sratches on the spokes. One of them has a chip. All have slight to bad road rash from curbs. I will contact e-bay, but not sure it will get me anywere. He is a fool for misadvertising. Stuff like that makes me so mad.

MN6 · 10-09-2007, 12:57 PM

Did you post in his feedback about the condition of the items not being as described?

aviator79 · 10-09-2007, 01:04 PM

Yea and he just replied and made it look like I was trying to get a discount. He offered a discount and I said "no I do not want them. They are not in perfect condition like you put in the discription." He gives me a bunch of crap... I was pissed, but whatever. Like as said whoever gets shose shiped to them is going to be ripped!
Basically I would have bought them for about 2-300 and gotten them painted, but no way were they worth that much and I could not put them on my MS6 in that condition.
Of course my car is in the shop with frame damage right now...but that is besides the point (rear ended in a hit and run)

bobthamazing · 10-09-2007, 01:10 PM

Lol, the retard even posted pics that if you zoom you can see the curb marks. Lol, perfect condition my ass!

Thanks, I was looking at that auction last week and just now saw the re-list. You also saved me from being disappointed. I am looking for a set locally now. Thanks again for the warning.
