I want to buy some wheels from this guy that lives there off of ebay....But I would like to give the money to a fellow CF member that is trust worthy versus giving it to this guy that has zero feedback on ebay. These are pretty expensive wheels for my escalade....Anyone that wouldnt mind me sending them some cash and meeting this guy and picking up the wheels..>I would greatly appreciate it and will hookup with a few hundred bucks...Thanks in advance..They need to be dropped off at a local tire shop there and they will take care of shipping to me

I am doing a search to find info for you, stay tuned. If I remember correctly someone else has posted about this guy not being legit. Please stand by.

...He took the wheels to a local wheel shop and they verified the wheels and tires and he said they were. The shop worker called me...the name is Poor Freddies wheels...The shop manager said he would ship them out and act as a mediator

This was the thread that was started last July. I hope some of this members can remember this guys name. I wonder if it is the same guy.

I hope the other members see this and can remember more details on the original post, it does sound like the same scam.

It looks like the guy that selling the fake auction before, the 26" abruzzos, the lexani romas. The person always has his # and email. I would be real careful man.

I'm not to far from there, when I'm home, but I'm at school now 200 miles from home. But this sounds fishy just like last time.

You know the pictures are fake.. How do you have red brakes on the truck in the first picture. Three pictures later, your brakes are white... What part of the game is this? I'd say if you do plan on doing this.. PayPal all the way. Only way you can track payment. It's tied to your bank account. Only way I do business where shipping is involved. With all the information provided.. you can't trust it! I'd wait for something a little more safe, or atleast closer to home.
