Sportpack wheels - looks cheap.

[divetheworld]

Looks like a good deal.

For all the seller is registered in the UK, if you read the delivery details, it states they are being delivered from abroad.

These wheels were for sale a couple of weeks ago, with a slightly different advert and I believe the seller is based in Poland, just to make you aware.

IIRC Bincenzo looked at these and worked out it was a scam?

This is the guy I purchased my sport pack wheels from.....they were perfect with brand new tyres on.......he travelled (or his driver did) up to the Wirral and I met him at the tyre dealer I use all the time....One wheel had a small mark on but they were genuine AM wheels

If you want a set of sport pack wheels they look like bloody good value to me ......a set of tyres would cost you that much

Good to hear - I must have been thinking of a different seller

not sure about the seller but the set Bins was looking at were in Jockland and the address given was a hotel !

[Bincenzo]

Yep, Tonys right, mine were on Craigslist Edinburgh, turned out to be a scam. The eBay listed ones are remarkably cheap though!

[Speculatore]

Tempted, even if its to put winter tyres on......

as I said before I paid the driver after inspecting the wheels and tyres......I was really pleased with the deal.....they are worth over 3.5k from an Aston dealer

[avinalarf]

Enough already !
You are all tempting me,trying hard to resist.

Hi Michael
How was payment arranged ?
Did you fit before payment ?
We're yours with tyres ?
Very interested but a bit old fashioned buying sight unseen.
Thanks
Steven

As I mentioned before, I agreed to buy them subject to seeing them......my tyre fitter checked them all.....all were checked and none of them needed balancing ....they were perfect (until I managed to curb the nearside front).....I paid the driver the full amount after checking them....check out the guys website in Poland it's very interesting......at the time another piston head guy purchased another set off him....we were both pleased with the deal......if you want to give me a call then email me with your phone number

He's got pretty much a full DBS in pieces if anyone was thinking of modifying their 9. Prices don't look bad either - £2.5k for a bonnet, £800 front bumper, £250 for side skirts http://allegro.pl/shop.php/Show?string=dbs&sea... If only I still had mine...

I purchased a set of SPs from this seller at the same time as MG and was somewhat cautious about the whole thing, caveat emptor and all that - have to say it turned out to be a very straight forward and good deal, paid on delivery, after inspection so I'd be pretty confident - just satisfy yourself before parting with the cash.

I would have no problem with buying off this guy as he doesn't want the money before you have inspected......As Mark has said, we were both pleased with the deal we did and we both paid more than he's asking for this set

You all have given some thought to where these items are likely being sourced.
