Carlsson wheels 1/5 need to sell, huw much would you offer...

Some of you guys might remember the story behind my wheels, here it is in a nutshell:

Replace tires 3 months ago, discount tire scratched front wheels (Carlsson 1/5 18 x 8 diamond cut), they send them to wheels america to have them fixed, wheels america machined the whole face and lips qith out asking permission to do that, as a result the Carlsson engravins is gone. Discount tire ordered new Carlsson wheels to replace damaged ones, Oberklasse hasn't delivered them (very long anoying story), and now is sending discount tire to Carlsson America; Carlsson in Miami is not givving us delivery time, I've had it with this long story.
In the end Discount tire agrees to change all 4 wheels, but I need to sell these 4 wheels a.s.a.p.

Here is the deal and question:
Wheels are Calrsson Diamond Cut 1/5s impossible to get anymore.

2 ea. 18 x 8 with a small scratch in one lip, no carlsson engraving

2 ea. 18 x 9 one has curb scratches, the other has a couple of scratches. Both wheels easily repairable.


How much would you be willing to pay for just wheels, NO TIRES????

To give you an idea what to ask for...
When I bought my staggered 18" Carlsson 1/6 Diamonds, I payed $1K including shipping.

If I were buying your wheels, I would expect to pay a few hundred less since the fronts have been "modified" & now look like replica's.
