There ya go Gareth! Brand spankin` new as well!
Man, seeing that I'm glad I jumped on the wheels I got for my '94. They came with Royal Seals to boot!

Price seems a bit steep. Are they in Canada?
Steep? I think the guy was trying to buy Christmas for his whole family in one shot. It's been a long time since I've been to the MOBO.
Steep? Not really if they are still new in the boxes. Check out the prices of any aftermarket wheels and they really aren't out of line at all.
Mike
They are not still in the box.
He bought them brand new in the box 2 years ago, then put them on the car. the car has been driven for 1 year, then 1 year in storage.
He mentions that he can clean them up to point where they look nearly as good as when he got them.
Then he shows pictures of them on the car.
Right, I should not have used the word new ---- little used would have been better.
"Lightly road-tested"
Ueah, missed the slightly used bit. I wondered about the on car pics too. But if they are as new, no blemishes whatsoever, still they are worth what he's asking. But I bet there is some room to joo him down a bit.
Mike
Then he may try and 'goy' you up. :Muttley:
What a douche CR is. Now I know why I stay away from that site. I think my blood pressure doubles just hearing his name mentioned.
He is weird isn't he?
Did you meet him in St. Aug? Or Geoff, in Quincy?
I met him last year in St. Auggie.
Don't believe I've met him personally but from reading his posts on the MOBO he sure sounds like an odd duck.
You know that rule from the Mobo about not speaking derogatory about vendors?
Well they have the same thing among Board members. ::)
$1500 plus $50 Plus shipping is way too steep for me.
They go for $500 each still in the original box, used they are worth half that if that much at all.
I don't have the cash anyway, I've reserved that money to replace the vinyl roof in the spring.

Ya, you got your for a lot less than that with almost new rubber on them.
Thanks for the heads up Geoff. Hopefully I'll find a set when I have some cash saved up.

;D I'll keep a look out. :yes: Maybe a low offer would net some results if he hasn't sold them yet.
Here's another set. This will probably move fast.

Hard to see what kind of shape that wheel is in. I'd like to see what the other 3 look like.
Fed Ex shipping would be around $650. :yikes:
