Went in to meet them again yesterday morning and he has 4 wheels belonging to another customer.
They are painted in the EXACT grey that I wanted. Why couldn't he just admit that he did know what colour I requested but he just made a mistake.
So he gives me 1 of the 4 wheels (keep in mind this is before any work on them has taken place). It doesn't look bad so I agree to take that guys wheels as a swap for mine when the refurb is done.
Then I ask to see the other 3 which are moved aside. He shows me this:
It's absolutely destroyed with white worm. Mine were hardly touched when I dropped them in so I tell him I'm not willing to take those wheels.
He then offers me another donor wheel from a different guy. At this stage I had enough. He's offering me 4 wheels in bits belonging to other people that don't even know their wheels are being offered up.
I told him I asked him to do my wheels in my spec and I won't settle so now he's agreed but I'll be making sure I get MY wheels back!
