You knew from the get go that the wheels would be drop shipped right from AFS. AFS has decided to screw me and refuses to ship a couple sets that they already have money for. I got your MO yesterday and PM'd you last night telling you that AFS is screwing me so I'd return your MO to you. I took it into the post office this morning and had them return it to sender.

I'm sorry that you are in a bind, but common sense says don't ditch your old wheels till the new ones arrive.

This was out of my control. I've talked to AFS several times and they don't give a crap.

There are, currently, two other customers that are also in this mess thanks to AFS. Your MO will be arriving back to you shortly as I took it into the post office this morning.

I've sold plenty of these wheels with no problems to satisfied people. Just do a search for my username in this forum.

Do you think I wanted this to happen? As I said, I've sold a few sets of these with no problems to people on this board. I would've loved to get some wheels out to you and make a couple bucks, but AFS is screwing us. I'm not doing the screwing!

There was ZERO need to post this thread as the situation has been explained to you and your money is on the way back to ya. It's not my fault you sold your wheels prematurely. I'm sorry that this has happened, but it's a problem w/AFS, not me!! Next time please plan ahead and don't sell your wheels till the new ones arrive.


There was no scamming as I have sold a few sets of the wheels already and the people got their wheels no problems at all.
This guy is just pissed cuz he was an idiot and sold his old wheels before he got new ones. That's on you buddy not me!

Your money is on the way back to you!!!!

I've got plenty of satisfied customers that I've sold Z06 wheels to among other parts.

Someone else picked up onto this scam and the post got locked for being in the wrong place. I did some research on this through AFS and he was having them shipped from AFS. This was a BS scam.. Talk to AFS and see if they can help you out, if you explain the sittuation they should help you. They are weel aware of FREAK Z28.. Good Luck
Actually, none of my posts got locked for being in any wrong place & it wasn't a f*cking scam. Would you like the email addresses of people who bought these wheels off me? perhaps you'd like the links to posts they made praising me?!

Tony, i was in PA for a wedding, wanted to stop by NJ were he lives and check out a set (if all was good to pick up) I couldnt because they arent there, they get shipped from AFS and that's how he works his scam. That's when i raised the flag and stopped my conversation's with him. I talked with AFS and they gave me the real deal. I am sure shorgasm has found out the hardway.
Again, there was no f*cking scam!!!!

It's called free enterprise.
I won ebay auctions and then got the money from board members then sent the money to AFS. they then shipped the wheels. Plenty of people have bought sets off me and were pleased. Afs is just pissed off cuz I made more money selling their wheels than they did. They could easily set reserves on their auctions if they feel they are not making enough off them.

I did nothing wrong.

Least to say if he's getting the wheels that cheap. You can too, dont be lazy, use ebay to win your own bids. Otherwise face the consequences of the so called free enterprise. Though I dont appreciate LS1 members hawking each other like this. After all this is a community right? One of the reasons I never trust ebay to sell or buy items. Half the time or more there is downside to the deal. From my experiences, If you want cheap prices be prepared to get a cheap product. All in all there is no free lunches here or anywhere online. WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!

Just to clarify, people did get exactly what I advertised. Brand new wheels from AFS

Also, I am not "hawking" anyone. You all have access to ebay.

There is nothing technically wrong with it but it is a shady thing to do to a "family".

I agree. This isn't a scam. If the guy is to lazy to look on ebay it his own fault. The only reason you are mad is b/c you sold your wheels whos fault was that. It isn't right that you didn't get your wheels but $hit happens.

Yeah? Now I called you an idiot, my car's faster than your car, I'm better looking, your mom's a **** and my dad can kick your dad's ***...

Now what are you going to do? Aside from continue being unable to understand simple and basic concepts are you going to turn into a raging internet tough guy?
Pul-lease.. save it for the other 18 year olds who browse the site. (no offense 18 year olds)


Face facts: you pulled a bone head maneuver. Why can't you just let us move on?

I'm outta here

Some reason you show NO respect for anyone?
Was there some part of my last post you considered a threat?
Why exactly would you be jumping on my back?
Maybe next time this will happen to you.Excuse me for pointing out someone whom even the Moderators have issues for.There is a little more to this story.Please don't assume you know all that is going on.It makes you look ignorant!

This will be all I will say on this matter and good luck to you purchasing stuff and trusting others to be honest about what they have.

All I have to say about this whole thing is that NewZ is a jackass. You wont have to worry about me buying from, or selling you, anything, ever.

A guy here in Nebraska was doing the same thing. The last I heard about him, the state patrol had a warrant for his arrest. He didnt return the money.
This situation is different in that respect. But selling something to someone before you even have it in your possesion is a bit on the gray side of ethical.
What if you purchased the wheels, and the original seller skated off with your dough? You would have to use your own money to pay back your customer. You take all the risks, and seeing how much fraud is on the internet in the parts game, that risk is very BIG.

FreakZ, you didn't commit any fraud or scam, but what you are doing is somewhat shady and unethical. Also, buy selling multiple sets of new wheels on this site, you are directly competing with several of our paying wheel-selling sponsors. For this reason, LS1TECH will no longer allow you to sell your new wheels here on our forum.

It would be different if these were a single set that you had and didn't use, but you are selling several sets. That is against our policy here.

Please do not post any more wheels for sale, especially if you do not have them in your posession. I questioned you on your eBay purchases in a previous thread, and you denied the accusation. Now you have just admitted it. Doesn't show alot of reason for me to trust you now.

Tony
