Hang on pal-
First thing first mate-a pm to say that you didn't get the springs with your caliper would have shown a wee bit more class(you were not the only one who got a caliper posted that day so i didn't know who didn't get springs-there sitting in the garage, but i take it you got the coppergrease for the pins that was in there ?), where did i say that brake pads were included?-for £45 delivered and you want pads?-if i have spare pads i always chuck them in for nowt but in this case i had none left, other guy ASKED about them and was told if i had them i'd include them.
Just to let you know the caliper you got was actually taken off MY bike and i was waiting for a replacement to arrive but i got bumped by ebay.I'm sitting here with a bike with no rear brake because i thought i was doing the decent thing in helping out an orger.
Feck it you've pi$$ed me off, send me it back and i'll refund you and you can find a replacement elsewhere.

just an observation but perhaps this guy misconstrued your offer for calipers including pads came from post number 3..."another one-just been serviced,pins and bolts all free and copper greased, pistons operating smoothly, ready to fit and go, with pads £45ono delivered" - agree that he should have PM'd with his comments though.

Aye you could be right mate, out of all the posts i made including the bumps it was only that one post that mentioned pads, all the other people who bought one and wanted pads asked- but he can have his readies back asap and i'll stick to selling the calipers on ebay.

I can accept the point about a PM - guess i'll know for next time!

BUT

To quote you:

"another one-just been serviced,pins and bolts all free and copper greased, pistons operating smoothly, ready to fit and go, with pads
£45ono delivered"

"always have atleast one curvy rear brake caliper available and ready to fit "

"Curvy rear caliper, stripped,serviced,fully rebuilt, fit and bleed and your ready to go £45 delivered"

They all seem to be pushing the same message, that pads are included. And note that i did not ask for a refund as the caliper is now fitted to the bike, so thanks for the offer but no thanks. Guess we can all learn from this experience.

pushing feck all and there will no be a next time between you and me - one post mentioned pads included for that caliper no others-everyone else who has got a caliper from me was able to understand that-if in doubt they pm'd and asked, you never.
If your no happy with it take it off and send it back and you'll get a refund - your implying I'm a bumper and have deliberately mislead you-i've sold plenty of stuff on here and have never ever had a problem or anyone unhappy with what i sold.
Send it back and you can have a refund.
