WTB-> 15" hubcaps for 850 in/near Toronto, ON Canada area

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a used set of (4) 15" hubcaps for an 850 in/near Toronto, ON Canada.

I've considered the VLV world "replicas"... but I'm not so sure of the quality. Bought some from Canadian Tire (local auto parts store for non Cnd resisdents), they wouldn't hold whatsoever!! Very loose fit, and yes, they were 15"!! hmm...

Also, the VLV world replicas say they have stickers... am I supposed to apply (and center) these things on myself? : from the site: Hub caps, SET OF 4, with directional design, new replica , for 15 inch steel wheels with VOLVO sticker to put on the center.

If you've got a nice extra/unwanted set and you're near Toronto, ON Canada, please contact me at myronx19 (at) hotmail.com

I've been fairly impressed with VLV world, except for two items I bought.. one steering rack boot (lasted 3 months, and tore around the bellows... failed at a seam) and these DanBlok pads I bought... they did nothing but make TONS of noise. I threw those out and got OE Volvo pads (which ended up being quite inexpensive!) Anyone ever try their hubcaps?

Cheers

Hello M.R.S.:

If you don't find then in your area let me know as I do have a few sources locally. I'm in Upstate NY so shipping would not be prohibitive on an item that light.

I love Candadian Tire and only wish they would ship to my area. They do have some winter items that are not available here.

As far as VLV World goes? Most unprofessional outfit I have EVER dealt with and I will NEVER order anything from them again!!!!

Ordered a used rear wiper motor for my '93 wagon from them on October

8th.. Twenty days and many emails and unanswered phone calls later they FINALLY responded--but only after my last phone call in which I threatened legal action and a dispute with Discover.

They billed me a day or two after I ordered online, took twenty days to finally get back to me to tell me it was "out of stock" and then another three days to credit back my Discover account--and I still have no verification other than an e-mail from them that they really ACTUALLY did that.

I paid my last Discover bill in full as I do every month but have not had time to review it yet. If a charge from them shows up I'll be even angrier.

Ohhh..and get this. Used parts are shipped from the Montreal area--yet they say it can take 2 to three weeks. I figured I'd get it a bit sooner as they may have been referring to all of North America.

Fine, as I learned the hard way that if I order from IPD in Oregon UPS is the bad way to have it shipped as it can take ten days.

Thing is, I can drive from my front door to downtown Montreal in 4 hrs if I push it and roads are clear.

Hmmm..but the US Postal Service will get it here in 3 or 4 days for less money.

So I ordered a remanufactured motor from Rock Auto

Ordered right after I got the email from VLV saying out of stock.

Within an hour I got a mail from Rock Auto showing great detail about my order and indicating they expected to ship the next day but that my CC would not be charged until shipment. Got home after work the following day and another mal from Rock Auto indicating product had been shipped and they provided a FedEX tracking number. Rock had said it might be 3 to 4 days..yet I had the product before I had expected it.

Bottom line should be clear: VLV will never ever get a pence from me or a recommendation.

Cheerio,

Doc
