The $50 one he wants $100 to ship it though :roll:


Really?...taken from the ebay page:

{Buyer pays shipping (UPS website estimates up to $70 to ship to CA from here), otherwise, I am willing to meet in Philadelphia, PA and avoid the hassle and cost of shipping if you are interested.}

Offer him $50 for just the wheel, and see if he'll unmount the tire and just ship you the rim. At about 16lbs, there is no way that it would be more than $20 from PA to you. Also tell him that he then has a better chance of selling the tire alone too, since the buyer need not have an X/Pathy/Frontier....

Yea, I did his shipping calculator and it came out to like $106 for it. Unreal.

I've asked him if I could just buy the wheel and he said no dice on that.

I've emailed him to make sure the shipping is correct though. Waiting to get a response. I'd rahter buy 1 than 4 if I can help it. And if it's reasonable shipping I'll take his other one too.

Jeff

Where in Philly is this guy?

I'll be driving up 95 on Monday and if he's close I don't mind picking it up for ya.

I just can't go too far out of the way.

That would be awesome!

But I would have no way of getting them from you....because you live in every state in the country.

His bolt pattern information was wrong. So maybe that's why he yanked it.

Dave, I've been emailing the guy back and forth. He's actually going to be in Albany the first week of May. I can wait that long I think.

Unless you'll be coming through the area sooner than that.

Well I do live in every state but I will be going to the shop in NJ and will be running into Keith and yousee him more than me so that might be a option.

Just a thought

You can have him pick it up and I can ship the rest of the way for a reasonable price.

I ordered my spare tire a few days ago. $143.10 after s/h. Not too bad, I don't think.

I really like these tires so I'm gonna stick with them. Problem is I've only found one place that sells them!

Just got off the phone with Blaine (Service Manager) and Nissan is not going to cover the wheel. But he talked with Teddy (the owner) about it and he's gonig to pay for it.

I just have to pay labor, $16 to put the tire on.

Not too shabby I must say.
