  1. Hello rec.bicycles.marketplace,

    I have a set of brand new '04 (in box, unopened) AM Classic 420 wheels for sale. They were a
    misorder and came with campy instead of shimano (for those wondering how I know this without opening
    the box, there is a sticker on the box, and I reaffirmed with shipper that they made the mistake).

    Anyway, I believe they are the standard build wheels with Cromo skewers. Specs can be found at
    www.amclassic.com/420_Wheels.html

    Price is $525+shipping or $325 for rear-only (retail is $800 direct from AM Classic).
    Paypal accepted.

    Thanks for reading.

    Eric

    Why not just return them?

    Thanks for the helpful message. I'm clearly too dumb to think of that option myself.

    Sending them back = Me paying ~$25 for return shipping.

    Selling them = Someone getting a good deal on a set of wheels and me not paying anything. Since I
    have to ship them either way, I thought I'd try this first.

  4. Yeah, but you're only down $25, versus $200 selling them.

  5. And if it was the shippers mistake they should pay for it.

    If the shipper made the mistake, then they should be paying for the shipping. So it should cost you
    nothing but your time to return the wheels.

    Thank you for your valuable input. I am such an idiot . . . you are right, I was going to lose $200
    to save $25 on shipping. The wheels are officially not for sale anymore, I am sending them back.

    Note: this is sarcasm. I paid $500 + $20-some dollars in shipping. Willing to sell for the same if
    anyone wants them. Otherwise I'll just send them back.

    Thanks,

    Eric
