That is very true. I got a great deal on the 35s but paid another $125 to mount and balance all 5
The take offs sold today to one of the first people who replied on fb yesterday. I had them listed at $550 and he asked for bottom dollar so I said $475. Today when I found out he driving 2 hours to get them I dropped that down to $450 but he actually gave me $460. I'm surprised but over 25 people contacted me about them and I was offered $500 several times. Of course, there’s no telling how many of those were serious offers or people just seeing how low I’d go. The guy who bought them was replacing a set of 10 ply Wildpeaks on his 07 FJ that he said had almost 70,000 miles on them. He even pulled a trailer down to haul them back. Very nice guy and I was happy to get enough out of them to pay for the set of five 35” Walmart specials I bought back in November.
Hopefully yours will sell as quickly as mine did. With mine, I was more concerned with getting them gone than making much off them. I'm happy with what I got but I have no doubt that with a little patience they would have brought more.
That was my opinion on the tires also but I can't seem to give the dang wheels away
I was a little mad when I sold mine. Had em on OfferUp for 450, guy said he was coming from over an hour away and asked if I’d take 400. I said sure whatever. He came and picked them up. 30 minutes later he posted them for 600, and used MY pictures for his post, couldn’t even snap his own photo. It was then that I learned how to say no to people ?
Yes that would upset me too. I just accepted a friend request from the guy who bought mine. I hope to not see them relisted! Actually I don't really care. I did notice that a few of the replies to my listing were from people who I've seen selling tires here in southeastern Oklahoma.
Been there a few times giving "Buddy" prices to people thinking you are do them a favor and it will be for personal use, to only find it up for sale elsewhere and priced higher.
At the end of the day as long as I get what I want it’s all good. I sold two 300 dollar beach cruisers to a nice older man who said his wife had a hip replacement and he was trying to get her back out and exercising. I had sympathy for him, my wife had a hip replacement too. So I gave him both for 200. He took them home, cleaned them up and posted them for 250 each. I messaged him and said wtf, did she not like the color or something?
