Man I got bad luck sometimes.

I bought a set of the those Harley wheels on ebay and 2 out of the set had blemishes in them. So the seller without question sent me two replacements before they even picked up the 2 bad ones. Nice guys but believe it or not the 2 they sent where just as bad. They offered to refund me $150. if I wanted to keep the wheels and pick the 2 best out of the bad ones and keep the 2 good ones to make a set of 4. They didn't want to send anymore because they said UPS must be damaging the wheels in shipment. They had them pack so well I can't see that being the case. They did also offer to take the wheels back and give me a full refund. So I'm not getting them now. I already bought the caps and was going to put them on when I replaced my breaks a week and a half ago when I got them originally. Well I hope the dealer will take the caps back. The seller has a 6,500 feedback score at 100% positive. :confused: I must really have bad luck. Here is a couple pictures 3 of the wheels have blemishes around the outter rim like the first picture (a few on each rim). and the second picture has a blemish in the chrome face of the wheel.

To be honest it dont look too bad.. Im sure once there on you wont be able to tell..Send the vendor those pix and tell him to refund you $250-300...:rolleyes:

You can have them repaired for about 100.00 a wheel

The problem with me is if I keep them that's all I'll see when I look at them. I did send them these pictures and some more, they offered to refund me 150. It's actually a chunck out of the edge of the wheel and there is a couple spots on each wheel like this.

Im pretty sure the first one was from a weight that was there, and as far as the other one, who knows what happened to it.. That sucks though..

sorry to hear about having to send them back but its a good thing the seller was cooperative and didnt bail on you.
