Re: AFS WHEELS?? (blu93conv)
I confirmed it yesterday, the rims sold on ebay are blems. Here's their response to my inquiry (sorry in advance if the formatting is screwy)....
"The wheels we currently have posted on eBay could have a variety of
minor blemishes. When we discount a rim by selling it at auction, it can be
blemished for any of several "COSMETIC" reasons and are sold "as-is" with no warranty. The blemishes are MINOR and may consist of an imperfection in the paint/finish, teeny ding, buffing marks, a combination of these items, or other slight irregularity in the appearance. The rims are still structurally sound and we guarantee them to be straight, true and not out of round. Honestly
our blemished rims are better than many wheel companies 1st run wheels. If
we ever get a seriously blemished wheel, we simply return it to our wheel factory for replacement. We NEVER sell new wheels with serious blemishes or safety related defects.
If you are overly concerned about the finish and a minor imperfection would
bother you, you may want to consider purchasing new wheels directly from our company at our normal published pricing. Please keep in mind that there is no such thing as a "perfect wheel" although our quality standards make our wheels far superior to most wheels on the market!
If you are OK with minor blemishes that would not be noticeable once the
wheels are mounted on your car unless you are looking very close, than you might be pleased with the additional savings on our auction wheels. Our customers have repeatedly been thrilled with their new rims, our great customer service, and the wonderful savings they get by bidding on one of our
auctions. That is certainly a decision that only you can make. You may want to check out our many, many POSITIVE feedback comments from our previous customers. What ever you decide, we simply wish you the best."
