they put onr different rim on my car

ok, so i was talking to one of the guys in my car club and he has the same rims as me but in a lighter shade. he told me when he got his rims put on they put one rim a different color, so i was like damn i should check mine, so i did, and beleive it or not i had one a different color , its not too noticeable unless you stand back and look when they have barely been cleaned. anyway so i went down to the rim shop and paid 135 for the new rim and got to keep the old rim,"whoo hoo, what am i supposed to do with the one rim?" well, after i got the rim replaced i called up my friend with the same rims diff color and he said he would buy that rim off me cuz he bent one of his rims this morning. so i told him 140 cuz it had a scratch on the lip when he was gonna get one from the other shop for 200. so everything worked out ok i guess.. anything like this ever happened to anyone else??
