Default Teamworks in downtown SF, feedbacks?

Saw this ad on Craigslist and was wondering if anyone has ever bought rims from these guys. If so, any feedback? Here is the ad:

These guys are massively screwing up the market. As long as they have a shop you should be ok. ADR doesn't warranty any wheels from Ebay etc, but shops yes.

What do you mean by "massively screwing up the market"? You mean their prices are wayyyy cheaper then most vendors therefore drawing people away from most known vendors? Too me that's a good thing isn't it, as long as they are legit?

It's the reason why I don't sell their stuff anymore. These guys buy 5 sets to get the discount, make profit on one set and then dump the rest at cost. It's why a lot of good shops have been closing down lately, that and Ebay. Then they try to charge 3% if you use a credit card, because they're about to lose money on the sale and that 3% is a write off to them anyways.

Now don't get me wrong, I love to find a great deal. It's a catch 22 for shop owners and customers.

ADR rims are too heavy. If you are just going for the looks, go for ADR but my friend used to work for that company and even he thinks ADR are crap. Just my .02

Teamworks is a very shady shop, if you even consider them a shop. They have horrible customer service and are really pushy pushy. They just want to makequick sales so they make quick cash and dont provide any support if you have any problems. I got some ADR M-Sports from them and they told me the +35mm offset will clear the Brembo's, so after I get tires mounted on them and go to put them on, they wont fit and wont clear the brakes. I call them up and tell them the situation, and to make a long story short, they tell my tough luck and wont take them back or even exchange them for something that will fit. Scamming *******s!

Their ad says Downtown SF but no address. They do have a number on their ad. The rims on the ad looks nice and everything but I won't know for sure if I see them in person.
