I say we just leave this as a for sale thread at this point. The Godfather has admittied he maybe should inform people a little more when buying wheels on what other things they will need as any good retailer would. He also cleared up the fact that these wheels were probally an order that was cancelled and that is why they are available.

Dychen, thank you for bringing this up. There was some confusion on my end as to the approximate build date on these wheels and the cutoff for the new finish. Forgestar informed me that these in fact fall within the old price scheme. So as such, the price is $1,399 SHIPPED.

Good looking out!!!!

Whoever buys this set can thank Dychen for saving you $100!

Nope, you got the whole story right!

<hijack> I wonder if I could buy a set of these from Forgedstar direct, and pay for them 2 months after I get them? Only seems fair...

<back to your regularly scheduled thread>

Hi Godfather. No I must have confused you. Not the wheels in the listing, but a separate set of piano black f14's! I believe in your thread you say they are $1399 with shipping. Let me know I'm ready to order.

I guess you are not in any rush to help potential customers. Anyways, I will just buy the wheels from vividracing because they are only 1 mile from my house and can get them in 4 weeks.

lol alright. It didn't occur to you that posting in a thread destined to be closed wasn't exactly the best way to get in touch with me? Come on now. If you're serious, shoot me an email. But I can tell you that the wheels will NOT be done in 4 weeks.

Based on other's experiences....

that much does seem to be accurate...
But isn't it amazing how people won't read priors before they post something wacky?
