This is too good to be true, but I ordered three sets to see what happens:

http://www.amazon.co...Car=1&carId=002

$18 a set for EBC FA261HH pads!  Says it's a new store on Amazon.com "Old Bike Barn.com"

Good Deal. I just paid $31 a set off Amazon about a month ago.

Came to $59.24 for 3 sets incl. $5.24 shipping.  We'll see when I get them...it says 3-5 days shipping.

Old Bike Barn? Might wanna do a search. Known issues with piss poor customer service, bordering on scams. Their prices always show significantly less than their competitors, but there's a reason for that.

But buying through Amazon should help.

The retailers that advertise on Amazon, Ive found to be very good, and Ive heard of the old bike barn, so it should be Fine.

Well, like I said, we'll see what happens.  I needed some pads for my ST1300 as well as the VFR, so I ordered three sets from Amazon (Old Bike Barn) and three sets from a trusted source (Two Brothers Tires in Georgia for $33 a set...still a great deal compared to OEM).  Disclaimer...this thread is NOT about EBC vs. OEM pads...we all know how passionate some of us are about our choices in tires, etc.   :tongue:

DOH! You must have bought them all, no sign of that deal on amazon as of 6PM est.  Looks like the 261's are all snatched up!

Good find, hope it works out as advertised!

I guess it's sold out at those prices.  It's over $30 per set again...
