Priorities my friend, you need them.

No need to be a lying little douche and cheat a business out of money.

Way to broadcast that on the web. Good thinking!

Now if an employee stumbles across this not only will they be seeking restitution from you, they may end up discontinuing the program which will end up hurting buyers that use it for its intended purpose.

yeah... that's stealing.

If you can't pay for it, don't do it/don't buy it. You think you're the only struggling college student?

Congratulations!

Your name and your picture (from MySpace) as well as a link to this thread was just emailed to both General Managers of the Discount Tire stores in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Don't waste your time editing the posts, I've already saved a copy off the server.

You, sir, are a perfect example of what's wrong with this country today.

haha.

nice work.

OP is a tool, I currently rock a set of Hankooks purchased from DDT.

might as well be a banworthy thing too.

scammer is a scammer regardless of the mark.

since I didn't lock this, I'm not gonna unlock it, but I personally think we should because there wasn't near enough flaming on the op.

I don't.

OP is stealing from a company. He should not be allowed to do that. They are a good company and should not have to put up with a$$ like him who are playing the system to get free s*** because they are too dishonest to care.

lol...YES!

I have a Discount Tire Direct ad showing up now.

I've dealt with the company in the past, they have good customer service, offer free shipping...and are the hardest to beat on tire prices that I've seen. I wish the damn chain stores would have the same prices as Direct though.

Dattebayo, your sig is originally a Mitch Hedberg quote in case you didn't know.

Back on topic, this thread makes me feel ill. Leroy, I think your life is about to become a whole lot more complicated. Let this be a lesson to everyone: if you're going to be involved in fraud, just keep it to yourself.

LOL!

I wonder if he has seen all this. I love the "I'm a poor college student" sob story. Yea, you and everyone else jackoff. That's the reason I'm still rocking a 2002 Mitsu Mirage.

While I would love to have a nice car that I can mod, I just can't afford it right now. So I take classes so I can get into a fire house and get a good pay check so that I CAN have a nicer car, just a little later down the road.

Priorities, get them.

What part of what he does are you guys upset at?

The reason I ask is that I buy tools at the local hardware store that carry a lifetime warranty. The problem is that it takes a week or two to replace the part. So I go back to the store when a tool breaks and buy a replacement then return the broken one.

that's not quite the same.... this guy is f***ing up his tires.... then 'making up stories' to get new ones under the lifetime warranty... blatantly against what the policy was meant for

Because when you break your craftsmen ratchet the warranty will replace it free of charge, because they stand by their product for life.

What Leroy is doing is buying a lifetime warranty on the tire that covers it for things like ACTUALLY getting a nail in it or something else like that. He waits until the tires are worn down, which isn't covered under warranty, and THEN sticks a nail in it and makes up a stupid story on how it happened. NOT what the warranty is covering.
