AVOID Shell station selling tires & gas in Wells NV

In July had tire separation in our minimotorhome outside of town. Was charged $900.10 for 2 tires (Major rip off) They even charged $15 per valve stem. Recent conversations w/"new" owner, & he stated that those employees were fired. It appears there are still problems there. No satisfaction yet. Check Yelp for further info about this place & definitely stay away.

  • Isn't this the free enterprise system as envisioned by some?
    The man sets a price and people are willing to pay it or not. You were willing to pay it so it was a good value to you.
    I guess we could mandate standard prices across the country but as anyone who took Economics 101 knows that will just tend to diminish supply.

    I guess I do not understand the complaint. Without knowing what size tires, what day, what time etc I cannot gauge whether that is a ripoff or a bargain.
  • you don't state what size tires but if you didn't like the price why didn't you go to one of the other 10 plus tire dealers?
  • Don't understand what you mean by "new" owner (in quotes).New or not?
    And you say "it appears there are still problems". Are there or not?
    Unless you can be sure of both I think caution would be better than AVOID.
