$hit like that just pisses me of. I trusted him and didn't even look at the wheels (they were in the shop b/c dave had to take them off) before he left, which is entirely my fault. The thing that bothers me is I was even nice enough to reduce the $$ for compensation he promised me in prior conversations the day before. You would've thought he would have atleast wiped them down once.

They were not pristine when he picked them up, but they looked NOTHING like they do now.

Meh, whatever...Im done with it. Just glad to have finally gotten them back.

The wheels are now black, completely covered, not a single bit of silver showing. So bad that there aren't even fingerprints from where Dave had to handle them taking them off.

Just a little frustrating. Lesson learned I guess.
wow... i guess i just can't understand how the enormous amount of maturity and responsibility that is required of a USMC doesn't carry over to everyday life

^^ i dont think being in the military can change the way a person is inside. there will be good people and bad people everywhere and in every occupation. i have friends who are, were, and retired from military and they're good peeps.... and then i have a friend who i no longer talk to that was in the military (usmc) but got court marshalled.
