I have wanted a set of these for ages, what is the general consensus on the price, personally I think the starting price is about double what they are worth - or am I just tight?
I got rid of a set of those a couple of years ago for £300, they were still attached to a MK2 Escort.
Kind regards
John
its best offer so maybe he just wants to see what people think they are worth
if you want them just offer what you think they are worth to you
I've still got the ones that came on my doner Escort - they are a bit scruffy from being sat for over ten years , I could dig them out and take a picture if you want to see if they are any use ?
How much?
Seen em go on eBay for less than £100! REGULARLY!

Easily dealt with Mark... just ask them to slap an address label on each one and tell them you'll arrange a courier to collect.
They shouldn't get arsey as there's no packaging to do. They're old wheels - they'll need a little TLC anyway, so who cares if
they get a couple of more days of being lugged around without any cushioning.
It should cost you more than £25 either if you go through a firm such as Interparcel... all dealt with online and you can arrange the date, place and
person they are collected from, so it's no more inconvenient than arranging the slot to pick them up yourself!

£50!
Who gave you that quote? You can get a lot cheaper than that!
In fact... if the chap at the other end is willing to tape the four wheels into two pairs, then you'll get that price down to £15.
If any come up close to me I will happily collect and package for you. I'm sure others here would help too.
Yep... me too!
