here's the proper reaction for 2 situations:

A) dan helps out, drives out and installs for the agreed price of $2000 + $150. go dan, dan's the man. In fact, he's quite an amazing guy... extremely nice of him to go out of his way, with no car mind you, to drive hours (round trip) in order to install some rims for some dude he doesnt know who happened to have a bad day.

B) he doesnt. oh well, it's not like he agreed to $2000 + roadside service in case of emergency. Yeah, I would have called him if I was in his situation, but I would also understand that there is no obligation for him to come help. If he said he was UNABLE to, then I would definitely not hold it against him. If he was to ask a friend or rent a car, you should have paid more. At least give half of what you would alternatively have to pay. As mentioned before, you could have offered $1500 and then the rest of the money after you sold the tires... get a written agreement written up for legal safety and had a deal.

To use your argument... it's quite clear that YOU didnt want the rims bad enough. You see, it's a two way thing. It's not just you giving him cash and he gets all the benefits. It's you giving him $2k, and him giving what you and him agreed to be equal value. So it's kind of like you giving him $2k and he hands you that $2k right back. But then you decide that since he didnt go out of his way to change the deal up, that he should give you his $2k, but now you're going to just give him $1.5k. And this makes sense why?

*Thank god I have a spare...*

1.) Yeah, both sides are in the green to me. Sure, he had some bad luck, would have loved the help. Why the hell is he attacking the guy, though, because he COULDN'T help?

2.) He had no car to help, understandable. If he had a car and went out and helped, more power to him. No real fault to be placed on the seller because he had no means of transportation to help.

Sounds like OP is just angry about the raw deal he got from life and is raging on the first person he could. Breath, calm down, go your separate ways and call it GG.

Wait a minute, why didn't you just get a tow to Dan's place so you could pay him, get your rims and tires, and go home? Did that not occur to you?

In any case, it's ridiculous that you blame Dan for your problems. You were the one being a dick, not him. I can't believe that you actually asked him to pay for the tires that you bought, I mean come on. It wasn't his fault that you had to buy those tires, it was YOUR fault.

In fact this whole thing was YOUR fault. You're the one that took a long road trip with no spare or roadside assistance and two bad tires, so how could you blame anyone else for your problems when you got a flat? Grow up and take some responsibility.

Yah lol



Sheriff- All Rise

Judge- Which one is the plaintiff and what is the problem here

Sheriff- Odsucky is the plaintiff and Danomite (danomites waves) is the defendant

Judge- Ok and why are they here and what can we do to get this resolved

Sheriff- It seems that Odsucky was suppose to buy some Vo , VO volxxs racing from Danomite

Osducky- Volks Racing wheels.

Judge- Who the hell is Volks and why was he racing? Also why isnt Volks not here?

Danomite- Your honor, Volks Racing is the company that makes the wheels

Judge- oh ok. So plantiff tell us what happend.

Osducky- yes your honor. it started off by me calling Danomite to let him know that i was coming over to pick the wheels

Judge- the Volks Wheels right?

Osducky- yes your honor the vollks wheels. so we set up a time and date for me to come out there. on my way to his place, which is like 1k miles a way from my home. i ended up getting a flat.

Judge- Why and (beep) would you drive 1k miles to buy some Volks wheeels

Osducky- Well because Danomite said it would be expensive for him to ship me the wheels, so me and my mother, who btw is your biggest fan and also asked if i can get a autograph from you. decided to drive to get me these wheels.

Judge- Well tell your mother thank you and yes ill sign her a autograph. (Osducky walking up to the judge for a autograph) WTF sheriff please assist this man back to his post. ill give him teh autograph later. Ok so back to your story

Osducky- so i get this flat right, then i started caling up all the local stores around this area. after 8hurs of trying i decided to get Danomite a call. So i call him, he answers

dano-"What the BEEEEP do you want B?"

me- (voice trembling) umm do you always answer the phone this way?

Dano- Who and BEEEEP is this? and why do i hear crying for

Osducky- that is my mom, she isnt crying. she is holding up my car up because i didnt bring a jack.

Dano- Word?

Osducky - um if that mean yes, then Word

Dano- SO why are you calling me.

Osducky- i am that guy who is buying your wheels from you. but i have a problem, i got a flat and i tried calling all the stores in this area for a spare. but no luck , so i was wondering if you can drive out here with the wheels. so i can put them on my car and be on my merry way. btw is there any way you can discount them for me?




Now your honor this is where its goes down hill. and i am stil Tramautizedby it. and also why we are here.

Dano- What "beeep" , "beeep beeeep" do you think "beeep" , ahh the "beeeep" santa is a beeeep " Beeeeeeeeeep'

Osducky- umm wow, is this how you treat all your customers? i cant get to you, so i just want you to drive 100miles out of your way with the wheels.

Dano- first of all , what is that in the background. i hear a lady screaming 150 dollars.

Osducky- that is my mom, she says she cant hold the car up any longer and that she will give you 150 dollars if you can come to us

Dano- AAAAAWWWW beeep no. you must think im kind of BEEEEEPing fool

osducky- also i like to add he had a shotgun. i can hear him making that shotgun sound like he was reloading it or something. And his teeth was grinding as if he wanted to kill me your honor.

Judge - I see, so you felt threatend by Danomites .

osducky- yes your honor i did.

judge- well dano, it looks like you have a dillema here.

dano - your honor if i may. (judge nods) first of all. os is beeeeeeeeping lying. i didnt cuss at him. what i said was , i cant make it out there becaue my turbo was blown.

judge- well that would make sense, i mean if you have the Sh%ts (sherif whipers in her ear, your honor turbo doenst mean the Sh%ts. its a engine part) oh really?

Dano- yes turbo is part of the engine. so like i was telling old boy here, i cant drive out there because my turbo was blown . and then he wanted me to discount my wheels. i was like hell the beeep no , your honor.

Judge- i can see why wou wouldnt.

Dano - like i was telling him at the Rx8 forums

judge - the rx what?

dano- its a forum on the internet, where we can post our ideas and stuff

judge- awww i see

Dano- so as i was saying. like i told him, its not my fault you didnt come prepared. then he wanted me to pay for his mother hostipal bills/

Judge -what?

Dano- yah, he was telling ppl at the rx8 forums that his mother couldnt hold up the car any more and it ended up landing on top of her. like some Wizard of the Oz kinda of Sh*t. i told him he, hell #*$k no . Hommie dont play that. Any how your honor that is how it went

judge- well i need a break to decide what we are going to do about this.
(15mins go by) well i looked it over, i can see why osducky is upset, and i can see where Dano is coming from. so i decided that osducky is SOL and S^&t happens. as for the Dano and the shotgun

Dano- your honor, i dont own a shot gun, i dont knwo where this kid thought i had a gun. also the grinding he heard was me twirling with my turbo. he just caught me at the wrong time.

judge- oh ok, any how as for dano. i can see where you are coming from and i would of done the same thing if i had the sh*Xts i mean turbo problem. so i rest this case in dano honor.

osducky- but your honor, what about teh doctor bills. my mom arms are stretched from holding up the 8.

Judge- well who fault is that? who told your mom to hold up the 8 on her own. and how can your mom do such a thing.

Osducky- well she takes steroids ,i mean she drinks alot of Ovaltine. which is why she was able to hold the car up for me for 8hurs.

Judge-well nothing i can do that about that. oh about that autograph, i am ready to sign.

Osducky- Beep you, my mom thinks your show is a Beeping disaster
