Barry,
OnYou clearly indicated that your auction was for local pickup only. If
the buyer wants it shipped you definitely need to cover your costs.
Four wheels for $54! At the local pick and pull I had to pay $38 for
one wheeel, with a tire I didn't want.
Please don't let one bad customer ruin it for everybody. Plus nothing
says you have to comply with unreasonable demands either.
Cheers
