Authentic Brabus IV 3 pc
For Sale on Ebay....BUT BUYER BEWARE. This seller bought all their wheels from CEC in California at a closeout cost of approx $700-$850 bucks for a full set (4 rims)!!! Yes sounds amazing...$5000-$6000 worth of rims a few years ago went on closeout and the seller (Coffeehour) bought them all.

Of course now they are on EBAY and the seller is not planning on passing along the savings......in fact he wants to triple his money. I just dont think its right. Buy em if you want but know how much the seller's pockets are being lined.
I tried to reach out to the seller and make an offer giving a bit more than the seller paid and they wont even reply!

I didn't tell members on this board they shouldn't buy ....But I do want to tell my fellow members, that should they want to buy from this guy,....they'll be paying a rediculous markup regardless of the deal.

Sorry to hi jack this thread.
Do you know what are the offsets that are on those Brabus rims?
Did you have to buy a spacer for them?
Thanks a lot!

who cares if they bought it for $5 per set, it's theirs, they decide what they want to sell it for. If somebody wants to buy it. And so what if you know what they paid for it, if they can't make money on you, they will from someone else. People are in business, BECAUSE THEY WANT TO MAKE A LIVING. If you don't want it, don't buy it.
By the way, i have no idea who that seller is on ebay, so buy at your own risk. But CEC is LEGIT as LEGIT gets, they won't hesitate to take people to court either.

Do you think those wheels were $6400 to make? Of course not! Something is only worth as much as someone else is willing to pay for it.

Wow all you want. I dislike schiesters ....he knows I know what he paid and so if he doesnt want to do business with me, reply to my offer, ignore me, thats his perogative.....but this is mine!

Sorry man, I couldn't resist
Seriously, why does it bother you so much? You pay a mark up on almost EVERYTHING you buy. Why does he have to give you a deal just because he got a deal?I don't know how much these rims really cost, but if you're saying they are over $5000, it sounds like he's being pretty reasonable.
And I think you're personally helping his cause by "advertising" his ebay auction.... unless that's your true intention
