    to the idiot on craigslist that got the trd rims...

    congrats on your awesome deal! thanks for putting them back up on craigslist a day later for $200 more. Instead of letting somebody buy them that intends to put them to use you decide to line your pockets reselling some wheels you obviously had no use for. Good luck selling them for your new and improved price! Cause only an idiot would pay the amount of $ you're asking for. Oh, and thanks for sweetening the deal by removing the parada 2 tires! If you hadn't done that they might be worth half what you're asking!


    the end.

    TRD wheels are rare and nice but people over do with the price and shit, when buying rare shit is better to do ur research pretty good before going out and speding too much

    oh well, close enough, and the best 1 word answer i could think of.

    other than that, blame capitalism for everyone being so greedy for money. :D

    and btw, buying commodities priced below normal limits and selling immediately for a guaranteed profit is as close to arbitrage as you can get in the used performance car parts market.

    i think what brandon is most pissed about is the fact someone picked up a set of TRD rims for 150 bucks on craigslist and turned around and posted em on craigslist that afternoon for 2 or 3 times as much. CB is in bad need of new rims so he can run winter tires on one set and summer tires on the other.

    I agree, bussiness is business. I would do the same thing if I could buy something cheap then sell it for more. That is what a lot of wholesalers do on Ebay and Craigs list. Its just the way of the industry. (one I need to get into lol)
