Just a quick post to about an experience I had yesterday.

I agreed a price on these - 192639430572 eBay - and traveled 2 hours the sane day to pay and collect.
A lovely reconditioned set of wheels for my 306, not quite.
The worst set of reconditioned wheels I have ever seen. The seller tried to explain how they had been dipped, blasted and coated LOL
To me it looked like they had powdered straight over the corrosion. Dirt and bubbles in the powder, no gloss what so ever and previous damage that hadn’t been sanded out still under the powder!
He then went on to say - “well there not new” and “you can spray them if you like”

I’d stay away from these for any price. And if the seller thought these where good, I’d seriously consider about buying anything else from him.

I’m now getting my own sent off at a local company. Thumbs up

wow, how can people do that!! How can they be reconditioned in that 5hite state? I would have asked for some ££'s to cover your wasted fuel, let alone time - what a t055er. I recently sold a set to fellow forum member (not my wheels but sold on behalf of a friend) and I sent quite a few pics of THE wheels he' was buying so he was in no doubt what he was buying.
