Mines Left at back door today. Delivery guy obviously did not realise how heavy they are because it looks like he dropped the pack because the bottom box was crushed in on one side!

Sounds familiar - my missus was in the garden when the van arrived and apparently he did a Starsky & Hutch style turn in the street to come back up to our house. Promptly opened the side door and a bunch of parcels fell out - then my discs fell out on top of 'em. Ooopsy - hope there was nothing crushable there!

Received with many thanks for all the efforts. My neighbour got a bit of a shock when he tried to move them as they were delivered while I was away. I guess the hernia will mend in time!!
Thanks again Mark

Mine arrived a couple of days ago - although it looks like they have had a rough journey! Hopefully they are not damaged (they look ok as far as I can tell so far)

Ordered my EBC redstuff pads....

I feel a nice little winter job coming on

Arrived yesterday Mark. Many thanks again!
One box a bit battered but disc look fine.
Think I may mount it on the wall as too good for a car.
Loving the smell from them. Not sure if grease or what but up there with Castrol R as a man smell.
I might need to get out more!

I've been away all week but discs arrived Tuesday PM.
My wife says the delivery guy nearly gave himself a hernia carrying them in for her.

Car will be getting tucked up end of the month for the Winter, so the first job for the spring

Once again I can only add my appreciation to Mark for his efforts in making this happen. Cheers Mark!

I've just sent PMs to the overseas buyers from batch #2 - I'm going to get quotes for international shipping from the courier companies used by my mate who is storing the discs. The rates for UK delivery were seriously cheap, so it's possible we might get attractive rates for overseas as well. Those who received the PM - please respond promptly as I'd like to get all remaining discs on their way and out of the warehouse.

The courier that delivered mine was a bit of a w4nker, in fact a huge bellend. ;)

Freshly machined metal often has a special kind of smell. When I was doing my engineering training I always took a deep breath of it when first entering a machine shop. Something special about it to a mechanical engineer - as good a fresh bread in its own way.

GBP145 or so per set to Australia is the best price I can find - UPS express saver. Anyone do better?

Mark are they ready for pickup yet? No hurry.

Mate I'll get on board with you and send both sets if possible? Happy to get you the $$ up front

Once the discs are available I'll check again, but I think sending them one set at a time will be the only way to not incur GST, import duty etc.

Thanks! Wasn't sure it had been sent,and didn't want to cause any delay regarding the payment.
