If you ever need used Porsche parts DO NOT DEAL WITH Nineapart >>> http://www.porschapart.com/gpage5.html .....

Here's my story (and I'm sticking to it!)...........I ordered a used wheel (for a 2000 Boxster) and it was supposed to get here in one week at the latest (which I was promised numerous times), well it took two! When I finally got it I couldn't believe what a piece of sh*t it was, it was sandblasted and sprayed silver with a rattle can but NO CLEARCOAT...!!!. Both the blasting/spraying were done half-a** (I could easily do better), and not the mention the wheel was crap to begin with.....

I called him up for the 39th time and tried to chew the guy a 'new one' but without being a d*ck, well once again he gave me every friggin excuse in the book and was arrogant as hell. He offered me a refund but told me I'd have to pay for shipping ($50 back to Canada). For that I got loud with him, he then told me to 'stick it', and then he hung up on me. I guess I should have just stopped when he offered me a refund but he was being such a d*ck about it, he made me feel like I was out of line with everything. I guess I was just trying to get him to acknowledge that he promised me that I'd have it in a week and that it was a very good used wheel, neither of which were remotely true and I was pissed. But he couldn't have cared less.....


The kicker is I tried to be as ‘economical’ as possible with a used wheel ($340 shipped) vs. buying a brand new one ($440 shipped) so I saved a $100, but hey a $100 is a $100 (at the time). Now I have to spend $50 getting it back to them and I still don't have a wheel.....



Well I'm done.....I have to go kill something right now, WHAT A WAY TO START THE DAY...!!! :fire

I thought of that but I don't know how far I want to go with it.....







Besides the obvious I didn't have a chance to spin it on the balancer, I did spin it on the car and it seemed fairly straight but it was hard to tell exactly.....

Post it up on the porsche boards about your experience with them. Send him an email with a link to the thread. Maybe he will get the message.
