I also contact my credit card company about the $85 and they agreed with me that I should not be responsible for it so it Paypal doesn't come through which I doubt will be the case, good ol' chase bank will!

I'm not a big paypal fan either. I bought some sporting event tickets on there. The seller intentionally misrepresented what he had. Paypal refused to send me my money back because they were tickets and wouldn't be worth anything by the time I sent them back to the seller. So I canceled the CC transaction. I got my money and a free set of tickets in the end.

Good luck with your situation. You are probably better off buying a used set from a trusted forum member.

Right now I have both my credit card company and paypal working on the case. That being said, I found a 3rd seller of the Nismo wheels and got myself a set! They arrived today!!

congrats. nismo wheels are sex.

congrats dude :tup:

3rd times a charm.

Yup! Right now they're sitting on my living room floor. I'm waiting for my Hankook Ventus V12's to come in so they can be installed!

congrats on getting the wheels and I meant to write you "shouldn't" have to pay that $85. typo lol

I have learned over 10 years using paypal that you have to be very diligent when selling something... too many scams out there. Tracking numbers and pictures galore are your friend.

Sorry about the wheels... open a dispute... paypal always favors the buyer... it is the burden of the seller to prove they did the right thing.

The wheels get installed tomorrow afternoon... I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Installed! Check out pics in my Journal!

Nice looks good. How much did the install run you?

Now you want me to work to see your pics? lol

There are no paypal fees when a refund is issued, so there is not even an excuse for the "seller" to think he should keep money. If you refund the full amount, all the fees are refunded. If you refund half the total, half the fees are refunded.

So ya, you should get the full total back.

How much are you looking to spend? I'm trying to get myself a set of these: S5:F Wheel - Gunmetal - S5:F - Wheels

My Nismo wheels are curb rashed but it's nothing horribly bad. I'm currently sanding down the areas that are messed up and painting them over.
