No mate, just the Rota force 8.5x18 5x114.3. Bronze wheels! I don't think I got much off a deal after what people are saying, feel a bit gutted! £500 is really my lowest I'm just glad there clean so I can get something back, feel like **** after reading what they should apparently cost!

They can't possibly retail for £133 each if you paid £900 for a set a few months ago surely?

They definitely don't! This chap is getting them abroad with world wide shipping! I've looked everywhere over here and there around the same price! Still £500 is very cheap for these and I wanted a lot more but hey it is what it is! I'd rather someone get the benefit!

I'm sorry you paid so much for them lee
But does it matter if mine came from the states or not at that price ?
It's the same wheel & shipped to my door
Sorry again - but life can be
If you don't feel comftable selling to me at that price / I understand , & no hard feelings , I'm just saying how it is . I have no worry about buying new if need be / think you should get the tires back from ur dad & sell them complete , that way u will not feel so burnt

Regards

Like i said in my previous post, i appreciate your offer and i will let you know after the weekend. As you know ive paid alot for these and wasn't prepared to take any lower than £500, i really appreciate you offering £450 however i had two others saying they would pay £500. But as this hasn't yet materialised i have told them they have until the end of the weekend. Thank you again and i don't like time wasting either, feel a little upset that these haven't gone by now but i will let you know by tomorrow. Cheers

£500 for Rota Force is just steal....Just wish our wagon is 5X114.3

You can buy them from USA,but you will need pay VAT,import duty etc and you will end paying around slightly less like from here

You must work for our British H&M customs with a bold statement like that ?

Car parts are 3.5% Import duty / although some smaller items will go through without charge

A Clearance fee of £15 is also Payable

Jazzyjembrreaze: Quick question for you.

If you can buy them as cheap as you say you can and get them shipped to your door, why would you buy used?

£500 is the lowest the guy will go. He has dropped them from £700 and fair play they are basically like new.

Exclamation listen up !!!!

i sold lee these wheels a few months back , they are mint as i have seen them , he even polished the wheels before we fitted the tyres

these wheels retail at nearly £1100 with tyres so remove the tyres and even then i think £500 is a bargain for these even if they were marked etc

if you can find them cheaper in outer mongolia or wherever then fair ****s to you but lee is selling them at a fair and slightly lower price than he should imo

my friend imported wheels from the states as they were cheaper and by the time they got here with all the charges and stuff they worked out about £20 cheaper than i would of sold them for here.

if i was you lee id stick to £500 and no less mate as this thread is getting stupid

in the end my prices cant be to bad or the 200+ customers from scoobynet/other forums wouldnt have bought wheels off me

As I stated in earlier posts , I though lee should put the tyres back on & sell complete to get a fairer price / I'm not on this site to talk pipe dreams with u all

I made an offer / he either accepts or declines

Or for you simpletons he sells or he dosent

Thanks to everyone for the comments etc, and to maggs who originally did me a great deal and knows the care i take. Jazzyjembreaze has made me an offer and thas fair enough, and like we have all said these wheels arent cheap and probably not that much cheaper from abroad. Thanks to all.

I'm not working HMRC

I've imported few things from USA like myself and like via Internet

Here is it what I know:

Yes import duty on car parts is 3.5%,but you will need to pay VAT(in UK is 20%,this is payable here and usually is not included in purchased item from USA or non EU state) and if your item will come from any US state,you will need pay extra tax for this state(its called sales tax,if your wheels come from California,California has a sales tax of 7.25%),last bit is handling fees(this varies across companies,just check who will deliver to you,if its UPS you will need pay VAT,handling fees and other charges on the delivery)

This website can help you with the calculation taxes,but there are not included handling fees and other charges
