As far as not saying anything... the whole point of this forum is to help people out, and your friend clearly needs some help selling his stuff. So instead of me not saying anything and letting your poor friend sit on his stuff wondering why no one wants it, it makes a lot more sense to point out why his stuff isn't selling. Plus, it was funny. If he's not happy about the public reaction to his sale, just let me know and I can delete his post and he can take it to eBay.

But frankly, it'd be better if he takes my advice, even if it was made jokingly, and try selling those wheels for a reasonable price. They're actually nice ~$400 wheels that he shouldn't have too hard a time selling as long as he's not being silly with his asking price.
I apologize for the post I made earlier scott. He was frusterated with me for some dumb ass reasons and so i was frusterated and brought it into the thread. So again sorry. And I don't think he knows that BBS's are forged. Hell I'll admit I didn't know that til a few months ago. And as far as the word "CHEAP" being in the thread title was because most the stuff in here was cheap or reasonably priced, or was dropped to a reasonable price. I bought stuff from him that was cheap. I believe the turbo kit with the fmic was cheap. And I have told him he's going to have to lower the prices on stuff. But again there's somethings that have also barely been used that he want's to try and get some money for. Like the coilovers, and exhaust for example. I personally think it's a fair price for those coilovers because they're GOOD. And I told him to lower price on exhaust and I'm still waiting to hear from him.. But it's not my shit and im just doing what he's telling me to do, and half the time im not thinking and just posting what he wants.. So if you guys think something's unfair or too high, just PM me and I'll see what I can do. I didn't mean to cause a stir up. But yes.. I as well laughed when I realized how much those Rota's were worth and saw how much he wanted for them after I had everything posted.

No worries man.

To be honest, his best bet if he's selling the car, is just to sell it w/ the Rotas. The Tarmac's are decent rims but they're not worth much to sell... certainly not enough to get some stock BBS's. They look stock-like enough, and Rotas are almost more common than OEM wheels for Subarus as it is. I don't think any buyer will really freak out over the non-stock wheels.
