? Nimbus wheelset

So was the $86 price for the nimbus trials wheelset a mistake? Because now its at $140, and I was seriously just about to order one. Does anyone know whats up with that? When I saw that wheelset I immediately began saving up money for it ($86 was rediculous!). I was gonna buy it today but then I saw it went up

yeah it must have been a mistake. Send them an email saying you just saved up $86 and were planning to buy the wheelset today but they put the price up. You might get lucky and get it for $86. Its worth a try isnt it.

Ahahaha, I knew that would happen. That is exactly why I told you all to hurry up and order before they jacked it up.

EDIT: Its also now up to $160. It nearly doubled in price. Theres really no use in calling and saying you would buy it for the $86, they would only honor it if you had ordered it before the jump but was charged the $160.

Yeah, with that low of a price I knew it was just like what happened with the Nimbus Trials uni.

I wonder if anyone who posted on here ordered one before the price jump. They are gonna be lucky if they did.
