I am not bold nor stupid. hah. I did my research before buying.
1) The background is different and not the same as the scammer pics in this thread
2) He sold another paid of wheels to another ebay member - both him and the buyer of those wheels are good standing ebay members with positive feedback
3) he is selling other items related
I guess we will all see tomorrow if I got ripped of or not. I do admit I was nervous to send payment from the start but I did my reserach and figured it was legit....

I bid after i noticed the green background is different from the scammer pics in this thread. Looks the same but is infact different if you look closely.
Is there anyway you can get a fake tarcking number? My wheels also say they are comming from Maryland when he is in Maine supposedly.
I may file complain with paypal right now...just to play it safe. Stay tuned for tomorrow. Lets see what i get!!!!!

Just called fedex. You can not forge a "picked up" status. The items were actually picked up. Lets see what happens tomorrow...I think I just got a really good deal guys and this guy is legit. I will let him know not to use the green background as it associated with a prior fraud listing if and when I get the wheels!

This was a good ending. Glad this worked out, and that even I was wrong. These days scammers are out like vultures, glad he was not one.

Very true. I actually told the seller NOT to use the green background if possible since there was fraud associated with it. Now I need to get rid of my 19in brabus wheels on ebay.

I asked about getting the serials, he refused to send pics stating they are in the "boxes" to be shipped and he cannot open the box. He guaranteed that they are OEM. Oh goodness.
