These rims alone are worth almost a grand.
Do rims INCREASE in value when they're used... or are they worth more since VinceTEC used them?

ROTA Group Buy

takin orders now - deadline March 19th
for delivery/pickup in GTA and surrounding areas starting April 19th..

price is as follows.. all styles are available (www.rotawheels.com), set of 4 rims, no tires.. TAX IN

16" - $850

The prices you've listed was based on a recent group buy, I'm sure they have gone down from a year ago, even 6 months ago when they were really expensive. I got my 15" last year and they cost me $850+, and I've only used them for 2 months and now I'm forced to sell for less than $725?

I don't think he's trying to con people by charging them more, Rotas simply weren't as cheap as they are now. And the seller still reserves the right to sell at whatever price he wishes to minimize his losses so if no one responds then he may lower the $, after all its supply and demand, right?

Listen, regardless of what I paid for them before, the group buy pricing now is set at $850 for a new set of 16"s which is amazing already. I'm asking $900 OBO for a set in mint condition with 2 Toyo T1-S tires which retail for about $250 per tire. If anyone wanted to, they could go and buy 2 more T1-S' and have a killer set of road wheels for alot cheaper than new.

Even if I was to sell them with a brand new set of 712's (stickers still on), $1200 is about $200 less than if the rims were new at TCC group buy prices. Alot of people want Rota's right now, so I'm just offering the chance to save a couple hundred bucks right off the bat.

bbarbulo, If you don't like "VinceTEC" items and pricing, feel free to let me know through PM. Thomas and hyper understand how it works... if no one makes offers on the rims, I will lower the price and will do so until these rims are sold at a price i'm satisfied with. I'm not in a rush to sell these, I have like 4 sets of rims at any given time.

Thanks for all those who bumped my thread and always support me haha

well now that you changed your price, it's more reasonable... before when you were asking $900 for rims alone, that was not cool.

it's nothing personal, you always have great parts and normally good prices. it's just ppl's statements about how the rims alone are worth close to a grand *cough*Tman*cough*
