The reason I submitted this was because of the lack of respect shown. I would not make an appt with a provider and then blow off that agreed upon time, showing up an hour late. If you look further down in the coed section, UniqueMonique started a thread complaining about a hobbyist being disrespectful to her and not keeping his word about an agreed upon time. This works both ways!!! I mentioned that Maggie said she did not want to leave me hanging and gave her the benefit of the doubt that her car broke down, that she was waiting on AAA and that her phone died like she told me. These are not the issues. The issue is her not calling twice at the agreed upon times. To top it off, she sent me a PM the following day saying that she had a bent rim, went to wal mart to get it fixed, watch them fix the bent rim and spent the night in Oklahoma because of her car problems and didn't get home til the next day. There is no Wal Mart that fixes bent rims. It takes well over 24 hours to fix a bent rim and when you bend a rim and are waiting for AAA on a Saturday afternoon at 3:30pm, you won't have it back the next day, especially on a Sunday. Getting a rim fixed at wal mart is a flat out lie. I called her out on her BS and she accused me of being like a crazy stalking husband. This forum is simply getting information out and people can judge based on its content. This is just the same as when a provider gives out information to stay away from a hobbyist when something bad happens. Yall want to stay safe and we don't want to waste our time or yours.

calling Walmart to see if they were open on a Sunday, the time involved in creating this thread, you've wasted far more than the 30 minute appointment you scheduled.
Yesterday you told me it took a week to a bent tire rim fixed, today you have amended it to 24 hours, no doubt because you've called around and invested your time in researching. Please don't waste anymore of your valuable time.
I never said I got it done at Walmart - I said I bought a tire at Walmart. I never said I got it done on a Sunday. I said I drove back on Sunday.
Me even having to go over my activities hour by hour to "prove" things to you is extremley inappropriate. If this is what you do at home to your wife, that's fine but you aren't going to come here do it to me. You don't have that right, canceled appointment or not.
I canceled and I don't owe you an explanation about why. I should of/ could of just said for "personal reasons"..yet as a courtesy I offered an explanation.
I don't owe you anything further.
I've apologized.. Move on.
Thanks and have a good summer.
