Why didn't they wipe the dirt off of it?


My exact thought also. Why take the time to post an expensive disc wheel that is dirty.

Also, why I suggested not buying from someone who doesn't have 100% rating was for his situation, which is buying a big ticket item from an unknown source. Plus, if he gets it and it doesn't work for him, he's out of luck...and money.

I err on the side of caution when looking at reviews and pics of things, as well as percent rating. Under 98, an automatic no go for me.



How would you lose your money when buying from an eBay seller and the product is broken or doesn't work?


Not willing to find that out. There's typically a reason the ratings are the way they are...I do research their rating before buying or deciding not to buy. But, in the end, it my money and my call.



Have you ever read eBay's Money Back Guarantee?


Welcome to the Fuck around and find out portion of the story.

Both wheels were from the same seller.
Rear wheel showed a little warping in the rim bead..didn't seem too bad. Upon further inspection on another part of a wheel it is cracked. So we will see how good that money back guarantee is.
Front wheel looked fine but after finding a problem with the rear i gave it another look. Put it on the bike and it's very out of true.. Is this a show stopper or fixable.
Pics and vid attached.

Edit: refund in the works with seller



The eBay Money Back Guarantee is as solid as it gets. If you file a SNAD complaint, you will get a 100% refund and the seller gets to pay for return shipping.

I purchased four sets of glassware (coupes, nick and nora, martini glasses) from a seller in Italy in December. All of them were chipped or broken in transit. I filed a SNAD complaint with eBay for each purchase and received all of my money back.

I have done this at least twenty times in the past ten years.
