i'd only consider it ONLY if the seller was in my area and i could drive out and inspect them myself.

I bought my rims off ebay, and luckily, it all worked out. However, it would be best if they were local.....

Look at his feedback. Try to use your CC through paypal. If anything happen, you can call your credit card company to get your money.

yea paypal = good for expesnive things. the only thing about ebay, a lot of the sellers dont give their bolt patterns and some of the guys dont even know their bolt patterns...

Has anyone had problems with ebay rims? Cheap clear coats? Paint chipping for no reason? etc. If I cant find any 350z's i'm thinkin bout getting something cheap for now cuz i hate my stock wheels

I bought mine from eBay for $260 with nearly new tires. It was a steal and local too. You gotta go local, cause shipping is a PITA

I haven't, but I would buy wheels off EBay, just like everything else. I hope you're not planning on buying some knockoff POS's though.

I got my 350z rims off Ebay. I'm located in NYC, the seller located in Chicago. Everything worked out. No problems.

EBAY GUIDELINES:

1.) Do not expect to get your information (valid or otherwise) from the page itself. Do your research pre-visiting the page!

2.) Check the seller's feedback, amount of sales, buyer/seller comments etc. Don't deal with anyone below 98% (that's just my personal philosophy, take it or leave it).

3.) Legitimize the seller as best you can. Any second guessing about his or her credentials is sign enough to back out. (Wheels aren't cheap).

4.) Be finicky. Ask for detailed pictures. If they don't want to provide them, you don't want to buy.

5.) Establish firm communication with the seller from the bat. It's key...and reassuring.

I could come up with more, but I am very tired. I've sold 2 sets of wheels and bought one set of wheels all through E-bay. I was considering buying my A34 Nismo Rays until the dealership beat the price. So far, my dealings have be just fine. Then again, the past can never predict the future.

Cliffs: Do your homework.

Try local CL first if possible. If you are considering purchasing rims off of Ebay, make sure the seller e-mails you blow-up pics of the wheels/tires. Look for local sale, and pay by paypal with CC for easier payment reversal.
