Looks like we hit a pothole and damaged one for sure... and we've hit some curbs before with those prior nicks..

So you had one damaged wheel ... And according to your description above... could easily be repaired or straightened... Homm.. but that's not good enough for you.... you need to have a NEW wheel... and not only that... you jumped up and down and stomped your foot and insisted on TWO new wheels even though one doesnt have any visible damage.... and then when your insurance company gave you two new wheels, and for some reason didnt collect the salvage on your old wheels (you know.. the ones that you couldnt ride on if they were repaired, and are also too damaged for YOU to use anymore), and NOW you want to sell them for a PROFIT.. :


Oh wait.. not a profit you say... because there was that nasty DEDUCTIBLE right? No... it's a profit on the wheels themselves because you've already been given new ones.!! And the insurance claim rep clearly laid down and didnt even collect the damaged wheels to repair or sell, and deserves a head slap as well.

So... you ran to the shop and scooped up the damaged wheels and havent even cleaned or inspected them any further, and rather than sell them on craigslist, you figured, i'll post them up on the forums.. NICE. Let's not hear you complain about rising insurance rates.. since you just added about 1K to the value of your claim, it sounds like.

OK then.. now that we know what an upstanding individual you are... how much are you wanting to sell these pieces of junk for again? I'll give you $100 for the front wheel and $50 for the rear... and yeah.. i bet that's not enough to cover your deductible..
Wow! I've enjoyed your previous posts, but I'd say way out of line on this one! Might want facts first. Sheesh.
