Angry Very Disappointed @ JDE_Joe

All started last month, I finally found a set of CE28N's that I thought were for sale. First we both agreed on a set price. Here comes the headache, a day later he decides to flake out because he thought the price was to low. I thought about it for a day and matched the new price he wanted to sell them for. Mind you all this time I was waiting for these wheels, I was working 70 hour work weeks to save up for them. Then he asked for a 500 dollar deposit, which I wasn't going to do, so instead I gave him 100 dollars to secure the wheels. Rick from Status over estimated the ETA Twice, which quite frankly which is whatever, I honestly don't know at this point. Anyways a month goes by and finally the new date we had decided to swap wheels would of been this weekend. Since his wheels were not coming for another 3-4 weeks, we both agreed on finding him a set of stocks for the time being so I could get the wheels I have been after for the longest time. Now after saving up for the money and a day before we were suppose to meet, he flakes out once again. First off why the hell did you even put these wheels for sale? Second why the hell are you so damm flaky? You wasted alot of damm time with your games. Honestly I hope no one goes through the same crap I had to for a month.

i believe in the the marketplace a guy is selling his mag blue CE28's in 18's. If you want CE's and 18's i'd say those would be a nice choice!

Dam that's B/S. Seems like he didn't even give you a call. You should try to get your deposit back as well. G/L with everything.

If you had just bought them brand new from a vendor you'd never of had this problem i've pm'd several vendors about picking up a set of these and many of them had them in stock. he shouldn't have posted a forsale if he couldn't have just given the wheels up. he should have posted a feeler....

I don't want to argue with you, but I disagree with that statement. We all mod our cars, unless you meant something else?

Sorry to hear about the wheels hope it gets better.
