    Default People like this guy seriously piss me off...

    http://www.bimmer.info/forum/showthread.php?t=20562

    not only did he email me and tell me they were real wheels, he also has the same set on ebay advertised as replicas.... Makes me mad too because i really want the wheels, if he even has them

    He's damn lucky I didn't buy them off his description or he would have been lawyered up in a heartbeat

    When people get suckered into buying replicas they thought were the genuine thing, after finding out the truth they try to do the same thing to someone else. Cause if they didn't know they hope the same thing can happen when trying to sell em.

    yeah but the guy knew he was buying replicas in the first place before he re-sold them... that's just wrong

    after further review, it looks like he's covering lies with lies.. check out the thread in the swap meet now.. He claimed his GF bought the wheels hence the mixup but in his PM to me yesterday he told me he bought them last summer and ran them all summer... Kinda hard to do when you buy them on march 6th of last month

    Umm.. Well the bumper was in good condition - the paint was in great condition, it was recently replaced by the BMW either way - the scratches were on the bottom of one side of it. I realized that you didnt like the bumper - but you were PHYSICALLY there, you could have told me you didint want it and I could have refunded your money. You saw what the bumper was and decided to take it because it was better than yours in any case. There were a few scratces on it I know, at this point I really really wish I had taken a few pictures of it just to prove that you are exaggerating. You can post some pics of it yourself and let people judge for themselves. The bumper from bavarian auto recycling costs about $250, from the dealer its $600 and bavauto recycling would not be a lot better than the one you got. Im serious - post the pics of the bumper. I charged you $100 for it. That is it - everyone else is happy with the stuff I sold, you are the only one. Can you please clarify this?

    -Sincerely, Artem

    Seriously, its an E34, they stopped making it ages ago, tell me something isn't worn out on it...
    You should be happy you even found it.
    Artem deserves credit for it.
