Yea seriously.... I want to put an auto start in my xB. Click it and leave it. When I get in the car 10 minutes later it's all toasty.

Buying anyone from an ebay store is sorta shady to begin with. The particular ebay store you bought your stuff from just has an extra shady/noob'ish name. Start buying things from reputable vendors! Prices are the same.

You want to get "ceramic" or "clay" ones" I believe they are made with plastics to make them not split in half etc. Look up some companies that make chips for casinos and buy some from them. I got some really nice ones for xmas one year. All the chips in the case weigh an f'ing ton.

there are lots of gaming stores that should have a nice selection. Even the cheaper "clay" ones are really nice and people will enjoy playing with them. One recommendation is dont get ones with number denominations on them. It sucks when you cant make them your own values. And once someone sees a number they wont be able to think of the chip value as anything but what is printed.
Thanks man, I just want a nice poker set with a 400 count peice. I know the "casino grade" are pretty pricey but If i can find a good clay set with about 11g weight for under $200 I would be happy.

Know of any stores in the area that would sell this? like Columbia Mall or Arundel Mills?

speaking of which anyone be interested in poker nights? since we cant go out and have meets outside we can do something like this if anyone enjoys playing texas hold 'em

Try Craigslist.... as sketchy as that site is, i swear by it, both as a buy and a seller!

This morning, bought a set of 4 22'' OEM escalade wheels WITH new tires from some super sketchy guy in MD. Everyone else (on ebay) was asking 1600+.... Moore Caddilac was asking 2300. This dude gave them away for 800!!

I swear. I'm in love with craigslist and all its sketchiness

Super Sketchy is a trade off to Super Pricey.

And fortunately, VA has non-ghey concealed carry laws.

Craigslist is the best. If they had Itrader on that I would probably be triple the points than what I'm on here. Many positive transactions and yea I am part of the rip off club too..
S13 wheels with snow tires for 75 Beat the crap out of them then sold them for 150...

No ShowStoppers just has quite a background on this forum, and are known as scammers. Notice they are banned from this site... I'm glad you actually got your part though! Did you get the TS style rear diffuser? I've always wanted one.



Brian, I'm still curious to know what story you heard from Mike Gilbert about our whole wheel situation. Never heard back from you.
