@everyone -- I know it's the internet and everyone likes to get in on these discussions, but I realized my post is buried 100 posts in on the original thread REPIN213 started. If we could keep this thread clean, and continue the discussion in the other thread, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
@REPIN213
Thanks for starting the other thread. I am the owner of those wheels who approached you last night. As I mentioned, my bicycle was stolen last November from Pico and Normandie. I believe those are the only wheels like it in LA. Ask any knowledgeable bike parts person, those hubs and rims are an extremely rare combination... hardly anyone even knows about Ambrosios, they came from special order from an importer, and to have them laced to phils I think it is safe to say they are the only set around.
Here is a photo of those wheels being built for me by Tony Z last Fall. (Nevermind the extra fake hand, we were at my friends house who works with costumes)
So listen man, it sounds like you are being legit, I don't see why you would start this thread unless you were trying to make good, and your story lines up with what you told me last night. Please reply to me.. I'm sure we can work out a way for you to get your money back, as you should, and for me to reclaim those wheels. Nobody else has to be involved.
Thanks man.
If possible perhaps we could swap contact info and take this discussion off the board. Here's mine:

Bump!
C.H. -> always classy. I think the community benefits from the thoughtful way you are handling this.
And the photo ... Amazing! I always wondered how tony-z does it, so good, so fast ... clearly its the extra hand.
I hope this works out for everyone and somehow leads to the return of your frame.
Best of luck!

he stole them its obvious.
1.Never explains where he got the,m
2.dodges questions that we ask him (ex:where did u get them)
3. Think about it 1600 rims that aren't really broken are being sold for 400 thats bullshit.
4. He said hes gonna put the store on blast. hes probably just gonna sell them.

I'm not trying to troll. They just think I have bad grammar. Idiots in my opinion

Why would you type like a moron types if you can know proper sentence structure?
Is it really THAT difficult?
If you talk like a hick, people will think you area hick.
If you talk like a moron, people will think you are a moron.
If you talk like a well educated person, people will think you are well educated.
We are trying to help you, little kid. Don't be a douche to your mentors. I say this because you obviously need a mentor to show you what's up in life. You are young, accept that you don't know shit *yet*. I would love to help you with this.

You throw that Idiot card out way to much. One day someone you call an idiot will call you their punching bag for a few minutes.

Well. It's been 10 days. No e-mail or replies from REPIN 213. I handled this as best I could and stated my case clearly. REPIN 213 you know I'm telling the truth in this matter. I don't know what else to say.
The conclusion is clear.
I find this all very disappointing.

that sucks man.
you have been exceedingly cool about this.
It seems there is no other conclusion to draw.
dude piped the fuck up the minute you gave him an opportunity to step up.
hopefully you will cross paths with him again while rolling in a group and he will be rocking your wheels.

Yes trickmilla you do make a valid point. I doubt he returned the wheels.
