macgyver Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Lol... Ok.. Btw, I went back to c what package the "Grind" is waiting for.... I guess it's top secret? Lol.... I should've had his wheels last year and was going to make matched sets but it didn't pan out.....I'm a bit jelly over it and maybe should've waited a bit more for them... I guess it all works out in the end... Quote Link to comment

Homeboyx Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Maybe I'm failing hard at currency conversion but google is telling me 100 japanese yen = 1 US Dollar, that can't be right... can it? :blush: Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Maybe I'm failing hard at currency conversion but google is telling me 100 japanese yen = 1 US Dollar, that can't be right... can it? :blush: Yes thats correct. It flucuates around but the normal conversion for awhile is 100:1. I just pretend everything is in pennies over there :rofl: Quote Link to comment
Dawa Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Maybe I'm failing hard at currency conversion but google is telling me 100 japanese yen = 1 US Dollar, that can't be right... can it? :blush: yeah its very close to 100 to 1 right now, (paypal transactions have been saying 97jpy to 1 usd.) i usually just knock off 2 digits at the end to figure out a price, pretty much the same as how tristin thinks of it as pennies. i can tell you last year i bought a set of wheels and it was 75jpy to 1usd. the dollar is def making a comeback. however dont be fooled by the low price of the wheels.. as the days go by the price sky rockets. these for example at the beginning of the auction they were only 1100, and now, 4 days later they are over 33000jpy Quote Link to comment

BadWagon Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 What would it cost to ship a wheel over the pond? Quote Link to comment
jser12 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 usually for a set of 4 it can be anywhere from 300-450 depending on size and weight. I got lucky with mine because my sellers only made me pay 100 for a set of 4 shipped. Quote Link to comment
macgyver Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Just waiting for the right size to pop up!!! Patience patience...... Quote Link to comment
gumbyz13 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 It sad when 100¥ to the dollar is good. It does make for the quick conversion though. Quote Link to comment

Jdm720 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Last night I had a dream that my wheels were almost here. Quickly checked the tracking info when I awakened to be proven wrong... I can't wait. Just throwing it out there :ninja: 1 Quote Link to comment
Dawa Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 ^ same! my (personal) wheels were sent out june 20th and even though i know it takes "approx 6-9 weeks" i check the status every single day. Quote Link to comment
Dawa Posted July 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 a very sought after wheel in the dimensions everyone has been asking for pair of watanabe 15x8 +0 35000jpy 19 hours left. 0 bids (means someone is lurking, waiting til last minute to bid) at this price they would be approx $607 shipped anywhere in the US but price will undoubtedly go up in the last few minutes. PM me if interested in these wheels and we'll work somethin out. Quote Link to comment
