Ebay warning!

Let me tell ya, those ebay listings are tricky! I got doped into buying 1 rim thinking it was a set.

Yup, a lot of people don't read the whole ad and end up getting a lot less than they thought they would.

I've had that happen to me (as a seller) but IMO, that's not my fault. If everything is listed on the auction, it's not my fault that the bidder didn't read it thoroughly enough.

The bidder complained to Ebay & Paypal but I won out in the end. Even had their negative feedback removed.

think about it logically. no1 is going to sell you a set or rims for 200 bucks. thats how ppl make their money on ebay. just read the listing properly and dont be impatient
