Looking into buying these wheels yet I'm not so sure about the buyer can anyone out her vouch for him. He seems to have a lot of post selling thing but hardly anyone has replied or made him offers? Some feedback would be perfect not trying to get scammed and lose my money especially since this isn't anything like ebay where il be protected from fraudulent sellers.

Make sure you pay with paypal and not as a gift so all the buyer protection is there.

I can vouch for him. I've sold him some APR mirrors before. Payment and everything went smoothly.

Ok he is telling me to pay first before he ships, anyone think this is a good idea? To me he should ship first then send me a tracking number that way I know its on the way. Because say I don't pay in a day or 2 he can just call the shipping company as the seller and ask to have delivery cancelled and returned to him. As to where i pay and then have to get a bunch of mumbo jumbo about oh couldn't make it to the shipping office today maybe tomorrow or the next etc etc.

There is nothing wrong with that. I wouldn't send anything before getting money. I've spoke with him in the past. Never sensed anything shady. Although you should always pay with paypal and use a cc. That way you can dispute the charge if he does not ship.

Of coarse you pay him before he sends you anything. Pretty easy for you to disappear with the item if he ships it before you pay. This is why you use paypal and you do not send it as a gift. If he flakes paypal will get your money back. Also calling the shipping company and having a shipment turned around is not easy and in many cases not doable. I would never send someone an item before they paid me unless I knew that person really really well.

Well i was getting nervous because he was asked for a deposit and i know paypal says it has to be paid in one payment to be covered. But we have everything straightened out now. Just waiting to get them shipped and hoping they have that nice polished(chrome) looking shine like all the other pics iv seen.

Sold me a bumper last year, and neglected to mention that it had been previously repaired from an accident. Also, took forever and a day to ship, coming up with excuse after excuse.
