How did you pick up that set for only $350?

It's like a new car. At least it had to have been a nice negotiating point to lower the price, a lot.

Hahahaha. You guys are killing me. I'll probably sell them for scrap metal lol.

And I got them for 350 cuz i haggled him down from 500 since they have some minor rash on a couple of the wheels.

It's funny cuz I'm not technically salvaged. Car fax is clean but it's definitely been through some ****. Only 23k miles though.

And never heard of those partschannel or lkq
