Upset .....



well last night was halloween and I had to work both jobs , I have been low on cash lately (hence the 2 jobs) so I had to agree to work both on halloween , sucky but I can deal , plus I went and partied after...... I didnt miss much. ANYWHOO , SO since I had to work I spoiled myself with some rims and tires , bought the rims from member here , ACESSBALT and we had been talking about doing the deal for a few weeks well yesterday I wanted to get myself a halloween treat , So in the pictures , rims look good and look like they hold air , I drove an hour to meet acessbalt and ended having to buy the rims off his DAD. so his dad meets me in moberley and acessbalt sent me a text (that I saved) that says "all the rims are in great shape , scratches on the outside (no biggie at all) but one has a small dent but for sure hold air , money back guarantee" SO i get there and almost all 4 of them have dents in them and are just in alot worse shape than he described , I asked his dad if he knew if they held air and he also said they did , so I was like its only 200$ vs 1200 or more for new rims and tires.... BUT I get to my tire store and my buddy hooked me up with some 215/35r18's(FOR FREE) off a mini that have almost all the tread still there and so I go to my delivery job and then i have one rims thats leaking and no jack to change the wheels because I dumped my spare to lose weight . at this point I went to my buddy mark at custom muffler and luckily he did a quick change and put the old wheels back on , SO I try to call acessbalt and he forwards all my calls and he doesnt have a voicemail..... sorry if this just seems like a pointless rant but I needed to vent ..... damn you acessbalt...

I realize this is a wheel-related issue (sorry to hear this BTW - I feel for ya) but it would probably serve your purpose better in the sale section. I haven't check but I hope you post there too if you feel this strongly about the sale. I know I for one take the user reviews of sellers to heart and would want to know this info.
