Buyers beware of EwheelDeal

[Pwinland95]

Just figured I’d pitch in. If any of you are ever looking to purchase wheels and tires do not do business with this guy. After talking on the phone and getting a quote I purchased a set of wheels and tires.. over a month and a half later still haven’t showed up. Charged my card. Won’t anwer or return my calls. Blocked me on his cell phone. The bill of lading I got from the shipping company was all screwed up and he would never return my call so I could address the problem. Im sure most of you aren’t on Instagram but he’s got a big page and advertises a lot on there. Just my two cents.. Im pretty disappointed after dropping $2,500

If I remember correctly this guy is in Missouri somewhere. If it’s who I think it is I’ve not heard good things from very good people.

If he charges your cc just call your cc and dispute the charges.

Wait until Corbin picks up the wheels first :rofl:

Those guys are a JOKE. If I can help you at all, be more than happy to.

Corbin, I contacted the shipping company after I got the bill of lading.. supposedly my wheels are in Indy at a central transport location. Tried contacting mike at e wheel.. finally called me back and acted like there wasn’t any issue. Still waiting on a call for delivery. I’m pretty pissed off at this point. And I’m not driving to Indy to get them, let alone have the time to leave work. I paid with my debit card. Not to mention he charged it as soon as I placed the order over a month ago.

 

[clrussell]

Just let me know, I’d gladly pick them up for you if they were at his location and I’ll meet you with them.

Even with Debit my bank (Wells Fargo / Visa) will still allow you to dispute the charges like Credit cards do. If they never arrive I would still give it a try.

Cc or debit cards work the same. All Visa or Mastercard.

 

[Pwinland95]

Thanks guys. I’m going to look into it more. I appreciate all the help!

As long as it was processed as a credit card and you didn't enter your PIN, you are still protected against fraudulent charges by Visa or MC like a normal CC transaction.
