I priced these used through a local shop that deals with take-offs and wheel repair not long ago. They were right at $199.00 US (each) and they had repaired any curb scuffs and shot fresh clear, if needed.

The place actually specializes in wheel repair, but they also end up with used and take-off wheels.

if used one is priced at $199 each
then do you think I can sell mine set for $600?
3 rims in great condition, no curb marks, just small scratches due to normal wear.
1 got minor curb but not visible from a far distance.
thanks

You guys are in Canada, so not sure what prices are there, but typically a used set of
C7's go for ~$400 or even less.

Unbelievably, I got a set for $50 from a guy who was new to the forum, tried to post the wheels for sale, got ripped by the OG for not doing posting everything just so. He got pissed and gave up on the forum.
I sold him a rear sway bar, so already had his contact info. He just wanted them gone! Turned out to be local. One was cracked though, 2 had good tires, 2 not.
Thats fine, as now I have a complete set as I still had 2 good ones. Sold one spare for 90 bucks on ebay, which paid for the whole set! And the cracked one is worth 20 for scrap if I ever get to a scrap yard.

I paid $400 for the AMG rims I have on now in fine condition, and that was with Michelin PS2's with about 1/2 the tread left.

Don't expect to get much, especially without tires.
