What to do?

Right, now RE my threads about my brakes I now have infront of me

Greenstuff pads front and rear and ebc ultiimax front discs and ebc rear discs.

Now I don't need them anymore as turns out during the repair (which still isnt done) all the discs and pads have been replaced as a favour which nobody told me about.

SO basically I've spent nearly £300 for nothing. Annoying? YES!

If I return them I'll be out of pocket a lot - so I'm thinking eBay to get as much back as possible.

What would you guys do?

Save the pads for the next time they need replacing, flog the discs.

1) Do any of the places have a 're-stocking fee'... If not then you could ask if they'll take them back and you'll only be out of pocket the P&P.

2) Sell them on here and see if anyone wants them.

3) I'd only use eBay as a 3rd /last option .

Oh really?

The fronts are EBC Ultimax thingys, these babys - - best ones they do.

And the rears are just standard EBC rears - Still interested? Do you need new greenstuffs as well?
