EDIT: Request closed - found another option.

It's a long story, but I have 3 Porsche Twist replica wheels and one OEM wheel. Call me crazy, but I prefer the replica, even though OEMs are easy to come by. There is one seller on ebay based in Milton, WI now unwilling to ship a wheel and provides local pickup only as the delivery option.

If you live within a short drive of Milton, WI and can pick up the wheel, I will pay for the wheel plus all packaging and shipping costs to Seattle + give you $50 to pick up the wheel from the guy.

This is a legitimate offer.

Thanks,
Jeremy

That's about an hour NW of where Justus (fischmama) and Joe (550) are located in Antioch. And about an hour SW of where Gabe (gilber33) lives. I'd gladly do it for you Jeremy but that's two hours from where I am. Let me know if no one else is available.

Tom just moved out to sunny San Diego. Gabe's the only one in Milwaukee now.

I'll actually be driving past that way this weekend. I will see if my passenger is up for the small detour. Keep you posted and let you know if I will be able to later today.

Timing is probably a week out (Friday Aug 2 or Saturday Aug 3. I'll just wait for the auction to end with my single bid, as no one else will want/need it and I am probably the only one who notices the difference between rep and OEM on my car). Guessing the guy doesn't have a box for it or the desire to drive to Madison for UPS/FedEx.

Between the three of you, is it safe to put in a bid and lock into the purchase now? Otherwise, I will set up a snipe and wait for confirmation.

Edit: I can remove the wildcard of someone buying it now, if I do place a bid I think.

Woohoo! I found one in New Hampshire last night with extensive searching of Porsche forum classsifieds - and he wants 25% of the asking price compared to the guy in WI + will ship it.

Glad it all worked out Jeremy.
