Is it wrong to buy rims then sell them the...

[Alkasquawlik]

i dont think he sold it to his friend, i think his friend is just calling him an asshole for flipping wheels.
ive done it before, theres nothing wrong with it.

Well considering you got it from your friend that's kind of a dick move becuase he could have been giving you a good deal since you were his friend...

If he got all he wanted then I guess it's cool. But I wouldn't feel good doing that to someone. I'm all for buying and selling but if it was a good friend I would just tell him to sell them for more.

My friend sold me his wheels. He was happy with the sale and I was happy with the wheels.

I sold the wheels to someone else. I was happy with the sale and the new owner was happy with the wheels.

I got more money than I paid for the wheels.

My friend is pissed because he didn't get as much money for the wheels when he sold them... but he's forgotten that they weren't his when I sold them. 'Could have been a day. Could have been ten years. They were mine to sell for whatever price I felt like taking to part with them. Eat it.

this was the exact case.

i retract my statement. its kind of a bitch move the way you did it. you didnt explain they were your friends. id split the profit with him if you took them from him and flipped them right away for more. i thought you bought them on CL and flipped them for more. i do that shit all the time.. sometimes never even touching the item

[dannyyisntt]

he'd been trying to sell the wheels for about a month and doesn't have a lot of money, so i bought them to help him out because he doesn't accept any money or help from people, but the wheels wouldn't even fit on my car, so i sold them. was i suppose to just keep the wheels forever because i bought them from a friend?

you asked for opinions and you got them. id give your friend half the profit.
dont be like the fat chick in too small of pants

[dannyyisntt]

you make a fair point dude. Since he is having some money problems it is only right to a give him a percentage of what i sold them for... even though i only bought them to be nice in the first place.

[dannyyisntt]

Did your ends justify your means? Ask yourself this.

[dannyyisntt]

Yes. I believe they did. I mean, who doesn't like money?
I'm not 100% sure my buddy will take the cash though, but we'll see...

From this day forward I think everyone on r3v should charge you 20% more for parts than they would charge anyone else.
