Need a huge favor from someone in Anaheim/Fullerton area

I am trying to close a deal for a set of wheels. The seller will not dismount tires or ship, but he can't find a local buyer. I'm in NC and we've just about agreed on price.

What I need is a trustworthy Pelican who'd be able to pick up the wheels from the Corona municipal airport, get the tires dismounted, and ship the wheels to me. Due to the buyer's circumstances, the wheels must be picked up by the end of the week.

I'd be happy to buy you a case of your favorite beer if you'd be able to help me out!

PARF's not necessary. What's needed is exactly that. Someone in Orange County that can help out a fellow Pelican.

If I was anywhere near there, I would have been happy to help.

He originally posted in PARF. It was moved here.

I would have the guy deliver to an independent tire shop and ask them to pack/ship.

Corona isn't in Orange County, it's about 20 miles from Anaheim. It doesn't sound that far until you drive it. On a Friday afternoon it can sometimes take an hour and a half one way.
Riverside is actually closer to corona. Maybe one of our inland Empire friends will step up?

Sorry, missed the original post. I saw Anaheim, and forgot how far out Corona is from Anaheim.

Hope someone can help out.
