Yup,you were right!! I went over to seller's house there was a couple guys were there to get them and the seller tried to sell them for highest offer so I got them for $750 F***n cashhhh....So if you want them you get them for what I paid for...

and you are? every single post you've made on NAM is to sell OEM MINI wheels (none adding to any content). I have no beef about buying low and selling high if you scored a deal, but you got called out and threaten someone for doing so?

So you bought them for $750, whats the point of buying them if your just going to sell at the exact same price without using them?

I have some questions:

1. What makes these rare? Are the dealers no longer selling them?
2. When did Astro Black become a limited edition color?
3. If you just bought them, how do you know they never been curbed or repaired? I had my wheels repaired recently and I can't even tell where the damage was.
4. Looking at the pics it seems like all the wheels have some paint chipping. Is that true, or optical illusion?

Looking here and it seems there's quite a bit of scuffing to at least one:

you can see that in the pics uploaded, though the closeups of a good one are repeated (same wheel twice)

Wait a second. He didn't even bother taking new pictures? He just pirated the ones from the previous seller?
