Why would it be in place to protect the seller? They have full control over the transaction. They put up the price and they are the ones who accept your money. What do they need protection from? I don't think this law is meant to cover someone's mistake

I really doubt a judge would throw out this because I don't like them.

They are ugly ass POS wheels. WHO CARES!!
I think you need to chill out lol. Why does everyone on the 8th always say that? I'm not worked up about anything. Yes I've made mistakes before. Where I work at Target, it's not uncommon for me to put up an ad price near the wrong item when they have similiar names. Guess what? I tell them to tell the cashier to give it to them for that price, because it's the right thing to do.

Yes they are ugly ass wheels but I want them. I have several friend's cars that could use em

because after the buyer's acceptance the seller has the right to collect money and a judge won't throw it out but malice can be used to discredit your case

It's no big deal. I tried to order a set of 4, just to turn around and sell them on eBay or Craigslist for some extra cash. I wasn't going to roll on those.

I'm with Strutking, if everyone would have just ordered 4 and not 12, 24, etc; it probably would have slipped through a little longer?

Congrats to everyone who did get them and I hope you enjoy them or make some extra cash for other mods with them!

I can't complain about Discount Tire Direct, since they did give me their eBay pricing on my G-games after I called them and asked. I've also had very good dealings with Discount Tire stores (there are a few I won't go to). I always search the web for the best price on tires + shipping, print out the order form and they always match it, no questions asked.

I wish my local Discount Tires worked so well with me. I tried getting them to match a price for $8 cheaper, so $32 overall and they refused to.

Got My wheels!

Mine are in too. Wahoo. Think I may wait to wear out my stockers to mount them. That'll prob be six months or so. In the mean time they've found a nice home inside my condo.

I was just reading through all these posts.

How can people see an obvious error, pounce on it, intending to get over on the company before they realize the error, then complain and whine and threaten legal action when the plan doesn't work? Discount says they make mistakes and reserves the right to correct them with orders.

You didn't get over on them. Let it go. Sheesh. Makes me glad I don't own a business.

Agreed, but it's simple it's called human nature....sadly

All about getting something for nothing or in this case next to nothing.
