Were picks of the packaging ever provided? if they were not packed correctly the first time then I would assume pics of the second attempt would be important as evidence to UPS or whatever shipping company has them if they happen to get damage in transit which is very common when shipping wheels.

No. The only pics I have seen are the ones in the sale thread. Eddie said the guys at the shop left an hour ago and he was trying to get in touch with them.
It's 5 in California. :-(tom, is it possible to get the tracking number from UPS if you let them know where and what time the package was picked up? I figured you might know considering how many wheels you've shipped. Lol

UPS tracking numbers usually are immediately activated but there are occasions that they do not get input into the system right away. Although I am pretty sure even the pick up drivers have wireless connections to the system. It could just be a case of the a type or mis-hearing.
UPS might be able to confirm if they have a package intended to be delivered to your address though??? You could check that while you await the tracking #.

You or Eddie can also try and track by reference if there is no luck getting in contact with the "guys at the shop".
click track by reference and see what info you will need.

I'll see what I can do from here. Eddie, what town were they shipped from?
I know the feeling. You get to the last steps of something and inevitably something beyond your control. screws it up!

To RxRoller: I understand your position as a mod and I respect it 100% but it seems as though your intervention as has done absolutely nothing to help expedite the process.
I understand the need to voice your authority but in reality all you've really done is add fuel to the fire and disrespect me and my family worst of all.
We (Reese and I) had already come to an agreement before you stepped in.
You came to SEVERAL agreements with Reese. You dropped the ball on EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM. THAT is your logic?? Well, it has some very major flaws....Even the one you listed yesterday:
RESOLUTION: My GF has the wheels with her and she will be dropping them off at UPS later today (Noonish PST)
I dont even see why you did to be honest cause all was going smoothly.
Your buyer contacted you over and over again, and complained about getting no response. You were told by one of our moderators that even he would agree to get the rims from you and ship them for you. He sent you that PM on 2/9, I KNOW you got it because you were on this forum on 2/11--even though you lied and claimed you were not, but we will discuss that in a minute. You were contacted by slick willie on FB even-and again, you lied about FB, claiming that you dont go on FB while youre at home, but again, we will get to that in a minute. You had a BUNCH of chances to talk to a BUNCH of people about this, and you left EVERYONE waiting and wondering what the holdup was. So dont even THINK about coming in here saying "this was all going smoothly". You lied your *** off to your buyer and only came clean on part of it when you got caught. THAT IS NOT A SMOOTH TRANSACTION, GENIUS. Someone who has sold as much as you have should NOT need to be told this, so again, stop pretending and wake the hell up.
Now, obviously, the cat's out of the bag....I did take advantage of Reese in more way than one and I will admittedly and openly confess to it as such:
The wheels were wrapped up for shipping, I was told to make it better by UPS so to avoid any damages to them.
In having them back out of the wrapping, I took advantage and slapped them back on my car for the shoot. Stupidity, I know and for this I will compensate Reese as they were no longer technically my wheels.
If you would have taken your time to spy on my Facebook page, you would have also seen an update about how my FC would be rocking XXR wheels for a while and while the AW7s were off, I had my stock GXL wheels on there but I guess I need to update my status on that as well so everyone knows what happens in my life every second. I dont know about you but I wouldnt get caught dead uploading pictures of a car that looks like mine with XXRs or stock wheels.
The fact that you are making my family business something of a joke is really cruel and disrespectful. I assume you'd like to see pictures of the deceased? If this will remove all doubt, I'd be happy to send you a picture of him but please refrain from making this issue something you want to continue to talk about.
This thread is about a business deal, not about you wanting proof about a dead family member! God damn you make my stomach hurt Mod! Show some God Damned sympathy.
FC_Eddie is a scammer. He has not shipped wheels/tires paid for January 27th of this year. Many promises at first, but now all he does is dodge phone calls, PMs and FB messages. DO NOT DEAL WITH HIM! See Bad Guy thread HERE
nm, i'll wait to see how this turns out over the next few days and if he does actually get a tracking number this time.
Again, I do respect your job and will continue to follow the rules as best as possible. We all make mistakes and we need to learn from them.
Will I make this mistake again? Of course not! Did I learn from it? Yes I have.
Will I make this mistake again? Of course not! Did I learn from it? Yes I have.
Like I said, we had something worked out but you decide to step in for no reason.
Please give me the time frame I specified to get tracking numbers up.
RESOLUTION: My GF has the wheels with her and she will be dropping them off at UPS later today (Noonish PST) so I should have a tracking number by tonight when she gets home from her second job BUT....
to play it safe, give me til tomorrow morning to have the number as I cant log in at home.

I typically keep my nose out of these things, really I do. But I am irritated with your attempts at martyrdom.
You claim you have been disrespected? You claim your family has been disrespected? To begin with, you have no claim to any respect in regards to these matters. You have not earned any. And I suspect you will work hard to regain a modicum of respect from the people that have been involved with this situation. Step up and simply take responsibility. No excuses. No more reasons.
I'm sure you are now well aware of your failures in communication. Rectify that.
Allow me to explain something very simple to you:
The one you have disrespected is Reese. The family you have caused additional problems for was Reese's. He sold his wheels to put towards yours. Understandably there were no expectations for the wheels to arrive immediately, but they haven't even been shipped yet!!
His car went up on jacks in wait for the wheels he bought from you to arrive. When his HOA (home owners association) complained, it was placed on jack stands and eventually he had to borrow wheels from a friend because the HOA had deemed the car as abandoned. They requested the car moved within one weekend. $1k is not an excessive amount of money, but it is not an easy amount for most people. How do I know all of this? I'm his fiancee. Thankfully we were already scheduled to move out of that house that weekend. So that resolved that issue. Thankfully he had a friend that had wheels he could borrow, and he is STILL borrowing.
So I ask you to simply respect Reese and our family. I am a full-time nursing student. We have a 4 month old son. You do the math on the ease of $1k.
Handle your business. Learn to communicate. It's easy. A simple text would have sufficed if you can't make a phone call. I don't suggest texting and driving, but I can drop a text walking through a parking lot. I'm sure you are smart enough and able to do the same.

Eddie-
Have you shipped the wheels yet? I vouched for you on several occasions. Like I said in my previous post, I have bought several items in the last 2 yrs from Eddie, which I recieved both. Now the latter of the 2 purchases took a while to get shipped, but i`m not in the spot 20b is waiting for wheels. Eddie... Get these wheels shipped if you havent already.

Its 8:45 am here and I still have not been able to contact the shop about the tracking number. It is raning so maybe they'll open late if at all but...
I did get a hold of someone I know at UPS (manager of local store) that can hopefully access the records. I gave them both addresses and names to look up. Stay tuned...

Reality is, anything out of a confessed liar no matter how truthful it is, you will always doubt.
PS1 Eddie you are the only one setting up the shipping date and time, but you continue to fail, who's fault is that then???
PS2 20B10AE take pictures at the package at arrival to see this infamous wrapping for shippment

well hopefully that's that.
in the future i think the lesson is: don't sell something like a car and take money for it if you plan on driving around in it for another 2 weeks after it has already been sold. most people don't like that sort of thing, especially if you say you didn't plan to and get caught doing it anyways.

Uh lets see...I was assuming it was off by 1 number but since you're insisting on stirring some more ****, uh I was wrong. What's your point anyway? Are you purposely trying to keep the fire burning? Do me a favor, go play in traffic.

I admit that I made mistakes, and yes lied but I am not gonna rip anyone off. i can think of a few people here that are still in business nand doing well even after worse situations than my own.
I'm just glad this is almost resolved.
I will also ignore anymore dumbass comments from people that are not making any sort of contribution.

You lied about the rims being ready for shipment. This also means that you lied about them being "in my girlfriend's car, she's taking them to UPS" during that time because they were on your ride. You told this guy SEVERAL TIMES that any one of SEVERAL PEOPLE was in the process of taking them to be shipped, and while this was supposedly going on, you had them in YOUR possession and even put them on your car. Take a look around you here, chief--if your credibility was not in question, why would so many different people be telling you that it is in question? how does it matter that other people spoke up for you? They spoke of THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH YOU. So, if you didnt lie to them, why would they think you were a liar? But this is DIFFERENT, you DID lie to this guy. And you lied about a bit more than just "the rims were back on my car for one day".
1--you lied about the rims, yes.
2--you lied about who, and how many times, people had these rims in their car, taking them to be shipped out.
3--you lied when you said "I dont get online at home, I only use FB from my phone when I am in between clients".....because you posted how you were having a lazy day at home and on your third movie. You also posted "I just got home and it's 7:30 in the morning...."
4--you then lied when it came to "RESOLUTION--today is the 14th, and 'just to play it safe', I will have a tracking number for Reese by tomorrow morning at the latest....." Yesterday morning came and went with nothing but more doubt about your intentions.
Its really strange....you said that a family member died....this is where we see you lying again. You told him on 2/7:
I sent him PMs with my phone number in it over the next few days with no answers. Finally, on the 7th, he sent me a PM saying that he had had a death in the family, so he had not been online. He also said that he had intended to have a friend of his log in and send me a PM explaining everything, but he later said he never got around to telling his friend to do so. He offered to either refund my money or send the wheels out that day (the 7th).
Reese I totally understand your frustrations but when i said I would ship the wheels "tonight" I got called straight to the hospital. My relative has been sick for sometime but I didnt feel it necessary to tell you about it since it had nothing to do with our transaction. Obviously it ended up affecting our deal and terms but I guess its getting better with each passing day. I dont need to rip anyone off. I have a good rep to uphold and sponsorships to keep so trust me, I wouldnt taint my own name over 800 bucks. Not shipping on time for a personal matter is one thing but ripping someone off intentionally is never an option for me which is why I tried to have a buddy log on to PM you but I didnt get to make that call last Saturday.
Anyway, I will have that tracking number tonight and I will call you to give it to you.

So, dont sit there and tell me or anyone else that your credibility is just fine. It most definitely is not.

Anyway...I'm done. No point in beating a dead horse. I gave Reese my apologies over the phone and he was ok with me and thats ALL that matters...not the mods opinions and definitely not any other member on here that pretends to know who I am.
I gave him what he wanted and people should just let this issue be. I suppose as a society we enjoy other's misery or watching people get flamed. All i'm gonna add is that I will continue to support this forum and will respect it as it is.
To Rx7roller: I guess you wont be happy til you see me in cuffs or something....you keep telling me the same thing and I've already started to put all of this behind me.
Looking forward to pics of Reese's car with my old wheels on it

rxroller, im not gunna talk **** to a mod for obvious reasons.
anyways, i feel like you keep repeating the same thing over and over and over to keep stirring the pot, when the wheels have OBVIOUSLY been shipped, so, with that said, stop repeating yourself. you cant go to his house and beat him over the head, hes a grown *** adult man.
did he **** up? yes
did this thing REALLY get blown out of proportion? yes
is it resolved? the wheels have OBVIOUSLY been sent out, BUT well see when reese gets them
and to reeses fiancee, 1k is alot of money to some, specially when youre not in the position of having alot of money laying around. but i feel like your post was out of line and kinda worthless empty words. we get that an issue is on going, but guilt tripping? this is a forum afterall, and not a soap opera.
overall: bad experience, bad steps taken, bad communication.
im pretty sure if both sides could take a step back and redo everything, things would have been done differently
