Thanks.

I went ahead and bought 2 sets, now they are sold out. Pretty cool design and great price.

I bought two sets of these and just received them a couple days ago. They are a bit smaller then I was expecting but will work pretty well. The orange portion is a hard plastic. The bearing is not abec rated but is pretty smooth. The bearing is 18mm with a bore of 7mm. All in all they are pretty nice for the price.

I can think of half a dozen things I want to do with them. The delivery was quick. They came wrapped in sandwich bags which was a little strange but they were perfectly fine.

Maybe these are of better quality, but I’ve bought a similar wheels a year back from ebay, but the bearing was terrible and had such a big side lash (you were able to tilt the bearing at least 5-6 degrees)
That made the whole thing unusable.

They started at $5, then went to $7.50… now $10… thanks for the post Emm… b@$t@rd doubles his price with the increased demand… as usual.
I’ll pass.

I purchased 2 sets when they were $5. He had a note in the comments saying that it was just a promotional price to see how people respond to them.
