I was asked if I'd ship them. (Just like I occasionally ask people in CA if they wouldn't mind shipping stuff from the Left Coast. ;p ) My reply --
' Shipping costs a big chunk of what I'm asking for the tires themselves, so it's not a good idea. I don't mind running them a hundred miles in one direction, in the back of my E -- I'd just like a buyer to have his inspection, get a copy of the papers he might need if there's ever a warranty issue, and pay on the spot, no "certified checks from Zimbabwe" business like you get on Craig's List.

These aren't a unique item -- just a good price if you want them. I've driven 300 miles to collect some things I've found online (a Velodyne sub, a Lian Li case) but I wouldn't put "shoes" in that category. The nice thing is, since we all drive around in these big shipping boxes anyways, you don't have to struggle to put 4 extra tires in the back (unless you've been living in your car).
