Typical, when things are going for free people want them. When they have to pay something, even though its a fraction of the brakes actual cost, nobody is interested. I was asking for £20 for 2 sets of BRAND NEW front and rear discs/pads. Im actually shocked and v disappointed. Sure i understand as was said the 440 isnt the most popular of models... but still...

Had enough now, they're going on ebay. If they dont sell then, which i doubt they will, i'll be either scrapping them or sticking them in the garage to get dusty.

Mrmeringo, thanks for the comments.

Not that anyone, other than maybe mrmeringo will read this, but thanks and goodbye.

Hi Anadinolin

You can still have them for the £20 plus postage. Cant see postage being cheap though, they weight a ton!

ok, hopefully not too expensive, i should be well enough to drive by the time payday comes at the end of the month to pick them up if postage works out expensive

Well i'm happy to wrap the brakes up as one package and weigh them. If you want to sort out the courier, just let me know what date they'll be collected.

Even if the discs cost £20 to post, thats still only £40 for both sets. Still a bargain.

I see youre in upminster, quite away to go to be honest. Would work out cheaper to post them

Well im trying to be patient. Cant see them selling on ebay anyway.

But i thought Anadinolin was interested in them, as said, when things are free people are all over it. But arent willing to pay £20 fkcing quid plus postage. Tight gets.

Sorry just a bit annoyed that they're out of the woodwork when they're free and slither back into the woodwork when i then ask if they'd be willing to pay. They say yes and i hear nothing.

So had enough.

Cheers Mr M.

Well anadilolin did say on the first page BEFORE you offered them for free that he'd be interested at the end of the month, no doubt he'll get back to you when he can afford it
