    Wow. Just wow. That wheel looks like it was in a car accident and then sold to you.

      I didn't even know you could bend it that bad. Unless the box was completely destroyed, it looks to me that the seller pulled some shit on you. I doubt whoever was used for shipping did that much damage to it. I have shipped window panes before without them being smashed, but a steering wheel? That takes some nice effort to destroy.

          Now that I'm looking at it... anyone wanna bet if the top bend is head shaped? No idea what happened here. Not taking sides... just saying. My only thought is you should have specified insurance, if he didn't. Shitty situation, for the both of you, either way.

            that definitely looks like a bent wheel from an accident. some wheels can even get bent into tacos in accidents. did you ask for pics before it was sold?

                Mind = blown.

                The material on the wheel is still perfect. The box is still in great shape. It would take a lot to bend a steering wheel like that.

                Maybe hulk bent it by hand?

                The picture on the for sale thread shows it as a straight steering wheel.

                The fact that the seller isn't replying kind of scares me. Most people would at least contact you and say they had nothing to do with the damages.

                Idk its odd. good luck!!

                    Is that the box it came out of? Forgive me but I may have missed if that was mentioned or assumed...

                        That shit looks like Salvador Dali got a hold of it. If you don't know him, look it up.

                          Unrelated question to the wheel, but is those Johnston and Murphy suede Wing tips? And one of the other pictures looks like one of their driving slip-ons. I own two pairs of the drivers and ALMOST bought the Wing tips before saving my coin for the 1850 Beason buckle strap.

                          Not related at all and I know how you feel about getting fucked for online sales. Bought a MT1 kit and the asshole never shipped it. But shoes and sunglasses are my sick desires =)

                            Should have requested insurance in writing, and when it arrived in that condition filed a Paypal dispute immediately. Good luck man

                              Even if the post office did fuck that up. The seller should have some balls and say Im sorry theres nothing i can do. Not hide like a punk.

                              Even in Arizona the heat dont warp wheels like that. It is very possible that the carrier fucked this up and just threw it back in a new box.

                              I once had fedex brake a M30 head Yes they broke it in half,so its possible the carrier did this.

                              Who was the carrier and is there any kind of redirect or anything that would suggest carrier negligence?

                              If it was shipped Via fedex,you can get atleast $100 back every package is sent with atleast $100. Also if this was sent via fedex there should be a sticker that says it was rerouted.

                              I really would like the seller to say something. Karmas a Bitch. Sorry brah

                              Nice cluster btw.
