I knew it seemed too good to be true..

what's up with listing stuff that's been gone for quite a while?



Typical. They grab a catalog and upload everything in it. Many times they will not even check availability. When someone orders the part they check with their vendor and find out it isn't available.
However, they will leave it on their site to draw in buyers. You find the awesome ad, put one in your "shopping cart" and surf their site for other stuff to save on shipping. Once you load up on other stuff and place the order they hope you'll buy the other stuff despite a back order.

It's the sneaky and dirty way of making sales in the modern world. Think of it as bait and switch.
It's EXTREMELY common when dealing with aftermarket wheels.

We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.
