Guessing they meant $25.00. At any rate, I will be putting about 20 wheels on in Feb. Gauranteed they won't start at $2500 and I won't make you pay for shipping an old dried out tire. Rod

Something about the DNA of junkyard wheeler dealers.

Unhappy Re: What are they smoking over on eBay!? LOL

I've been on greedBay since 1999 and have seen prices steadily climbing
since then. For the past 2 or 3 years what people want money wise for their stuff has really jumped. I still say some of the reason is because of bogus TV shows. Like Pickers that artificially inflate the value of items. People watch the show and than think that their "junK" is priceless.
Just my 2 cents and we all know how much 2 cents is worth now........

Hey! Those are getting hard to find....
I just sold one like that for twice that amount.....

He has some optimistically priced other odd-ball wheels listed as well.
