FS: Girodisc Magic Pads

SOLD!!

I have a brand new set of Girodisc Magic Pads (MP1001) for sale for the Evo X front brakes. These have never been installed and are perfect in every way - and now have a new lower price...

Now, please note, I bought the extra special magic Magic Pads, not just the normal Magic Pads. Thus, these are truly magic and the buyer will have spectacular good luck and, potentially, certain super magic powers (these may include, but are not limited to: invisibility, cutting off and regrowing limbs, speak with the newly departed, rabbit and hat skills, and super sexual prowess). I haven't experimented with the specifics and can't guarantee all users all powers, but understand the powers may take hold as soon as these are installed. Given the extraordinary benefits of these brake pads, I would like to sell them for $8700; as I need to buy some race car parts.

You can also choose to buy these brand new, perfect pads, without the extra magic, for a mere $Sold obo plus shipping. Unfortunately, I won't be able to remove the benefit of extra sexual prowess as it seems that power is embedded in the pad itself, so the buyer will simply have to manage.

Here are some pics:

Understood, and I presume many of you have several if not all of these attributes, so I figured I would offer the pads sans magic. Still damn good pads at a good price, plus the extra sexual prowess of course.

Nothing more? I would have expected a little excitement. Is it my spelling? How embarrassing to spell Girodisc wrong in the title... Is that it?

Are these just the fronts? I thought the Full front and rear set was $199?

No, that's not been my understanding. Though I think Martin had a deal if you bought one of his kits with lines and such, you got a deal on pads too.

I understood the fronts to be, generally, $180 or so, thus I priced these at $140. Seemed like a pretty good deal for someone. I'm not looking to make any money here, I just can't use them.

Wait, you are right, as MAP has a full set for $199. I can't tell what GiroDisc is selling the fronts alone for though. So if taken as I've currently priced them then the rears would be $50. That's probably not too far off but, to your point and to make this easier, I will lower mine to $120 plus shipping. How does that seem?

I would very much like someone to buy these pads.

What, you think that your fronts are never going to wear out? I know, wait until they are so very thin that they warp your rotors from the heat, or squeal as metal hits metal, and only then you notice how bad they are. You'll log onto this forum that night hoping to find some great and inexpensive replacement, and then pay double because none will be for sale at that moment. You'll end up buying some POS Hawk HP+ at full retail that barely stop the car. Then you'll be driving around a week later, finally with new pads (and probably new rotors), gingerly - like my sister, because you don't want to crash and you don't trust your brakes and you'll remember, "****, if only I had bought John's Girodisc pads last winter, I would have paid less, stop better, wouldn't have had to wait to install and would have all these magic powers too!" Then you'd feel dumb. So let's avoid all that, and so please do the slightest bit of planning and get these now before you have some sort of vehicular or existential crises.

It may be I just need some more coffee.

So, it seems that typing longish rants with humor interspersed doesn't stimulate buyers. Maybe I'll just go with "bump"

Bump

It's a little sad though, don't you think?
