FedEx lost my Wheels and tires

[Gayle]

pixel dust?

Pixie dust--Why do you think all Californians are fruits and nuts? Reality is a little bent here and magic really happens.

LOL...

Hey Gayle what part of Cali do you call home, I'll be in LA for a bit soon...

The northern part of San Diego county.

Umm, the feds usually frown on Pixie dust being sent in the mail, seems the Columbians have been squeezing their pixies a bit hard the last 20 years.

Hopefully Fed Ex will find it. I will keep fingers crossed here for you. GF had her bag lost/stolen by SOUTHWEST AIRLINES in April still no bag or settlement. It sucks and they don't care. BTW did I mention it was SOUTHWEST AIRLINES, thats SOUTHWEST AIRLINES(the ****ers)

Thank you for reminding me why I slep my bag on the plane myself and hoist it into the overhead.



Seriously--the wheel may come. My second ebay purchase was an antique dress maker form (think person-sized, iron core, manequin). It did not come for a full month even though the person mailed it 2 days after the end of the auction. The label fell off the box and after about 3 weeks it was returned to the seller, who promptly re sent it. You know "sh*t happens".

They actually came off a 7-series. Found them on ebay rings included.

So they were off a e39...just fyi.

Or else it wouldn't have needed rings.

Yet another reminder for anyone shipping anything:

Put your name and address on the INSIDE of each box, better yet- put a copy of the shipping label in there, complete with tracking number. If the label gets stripped off of the outside of the box, the box goes to the "unknown package" area and someone is supposed to try to figure out where it goes. They usually will open the box and see if the contents give a clue as to where it's supposed to go. I don't think they spend alot of time trying to figure out who the rightful owner is (time is money you know....), so make it easy for them and you'll be much more likely to get your stuff back if this ever happens to you.

So I'm many $$$$ into this 535i project. Wheels,suspension,interior etc. Well everything I've ordered from the various sources has been delivered. That is until FedEx showed up at my doorstep and delivered me 3 yes 3 F***ing wheels. The 4th has vanished. And of course those highly paid customer service reps told me I would be the first to know if it's found. So I'm not going to wait. My question is 18" w/staggered fit tires are 235/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear. This was the recomended size so any feedback as always would be great. If those Mensa's at FedEx find the 4th wheel/tire I will be selling the set.

wow, i wonder if this more of a planned thing then an accident? two of my friends had the same exact thing happen to them, with both using fedex as the shipping carrier. One lost a very expensive hamann pg3 wheel, the other a volk...hmmm employees secretly/slowly acquiring a new set of wheels...

That's what I was thinking. But only one wheel? Bastards got the one the seller fastened the hub rings to. I will try to be patient but my wife is liking those chrome 18"s more with every hour passing.
