He could claim he crashed and now his wheel is damaged. Insurance isn't just for theft.

Unless he really did crash that would be what ? Insurance fraud ?

aaaaand that would be insurance fraud. The reason we all pay higher than we should be. 

 

 

More than likely he did crash and now is taking a chance to have someone else cover the replacement cost as they do not have insurance. We only hearing one side of the story here guys so do not make assumptions like I just did about their insurance status.

Nope, it is vootstoots.

Or otherwise, I need to return most of the kit I have bought over the hub. I have actually stopped buying second hand kit through bike hub as one quickly finds out why the person was selling it.

Thanks guys.....He also claims that I removed the stickers off the original Syncro rim and replaced it with a much cheaper rim.....I know that wheel decals are not re-usable...CORRECT?

At one point when he first called me(2 days ago) he claimed that " I told him they were Mavic wheels and they are not".......I am soooo serious...... I am shocked that people like this even walk among us.....

Below is his mail to me:

 

"I bought these wheels from you. You said that you removed the yellow stickers from the wheels

Now that i am about to build a bike I see that the stickers have been completely transferred onto low quality rims.

As an active cycle trader, i am surprised this skipped your eye.

 

This is really not what i was sold as advertised on BikeHub.

I would like you to take the wheels back .incl Gatorskins/no tubes.

Where do we go from here ? "

6 months is a bit long.

 

Buyers have a responsibility along with sellers. He should have inspected them on recieving them.

 

I would politely decline his request.

 

Agreed...
