well it was you I told Andy about...coudnt remember the exact rims you were looking at.
No I wasnt offended. I am a nice guy who usually sells thing for cheap. But I hate it when people (in general) always asks for less...way less. Dont think I am picking on you. I have always said this about people on I-club and NASIOC. You can have something BRAND new and worth $100. Guaranteed someone will offer like $40.
You did ask for a certain price...which I said ok, since you were the 1st to respond...then you wanted more off. Sorry, but I cant do that. Again, I am not mad or anything...just couldnt go that low.
I knew I had talked to some people at the meets and they said they would buy these rims for that price....I just cant remember who they were
I am bad at names.

the rims i was talking about were the le37t's, ssr competitions, and the advan rcII rims that were selling here on baic.
when we ended our conversation, i thought we were on good terms and $50 apart on the prices we were discussing. i didn't know you thought i was lowballing you. had you told me that, i would've withdrawn the offer, apologized for the time i wasted you, and ended the call. regardless, i passed up on those advans b/c i was busy working and also waiting for a reply from you (per our conversation.)
either way, i will concede...you have the right as a seller to ask for what you feel is fair. as for the comment regarding forum members offering low prices for NEW items, there is the social stigma that items that changed hands is considered used, even if it isn't used, per se. the prices on these boards as well as other auto forums reflect this.

I replied to your PM you just sent me. And NO I didnt think you were "lowballing" me. That word never came from my mouth. Like I said ...I just didnt want to go that low.
Sorry for the delay in contacting you. I worked late, and you said you were going to check out some other rims, which I got the impression you were going to get...tonight...like you said you might do.
Anyway, no hard feelings
-freddie
ps. Someone is going to let me know tomorrow if they are getting them. If not, they are available... but I need to be firm on the price.
