Had you not responded in the d*** fashion that you did I know I would have given you the answer to your question but when you act like a child be preparred to be treated as such. You come in here and your second post is you acting like an *** real cool buddy! Do you not realize that just because it says "semi-metallic" doesn't mean that the are created equally! There's a reason things are sold for so cheap on ebay and that reason is because they are poor or low quality cheaply produced products. They may be great pads who knows but I know that I would not put something on my vehicle that is designed to help keep me alive from a place and manufacturer that is unknown to me. The fact is that not all companies have the same checks and balances as others and by us recommending you go to somewhere other than ebay (in this case autozone) to buy pads from a company that you can actually read reviews and real customer feedback on the product should not be responded to in the way you did! I can't really seam to locate the post where any of us said it was a lesser product either can you point me to it please? I do see where we said that there is no way to know where it came from and and therefore buying a better or at least known product such as Duralast would be a much smarter decision. What makes them superior is the fact that they are produced by a company with a proven name in the brake world. You logic on the AZ warranty replacement is also flawed! You say you would have to take the truck to your mechanic and have him take the pads off and then wait for AZ to replace them (for free mind you) and that your truck would have to be down while this was taking place. What the he** do you think you are going to have to do with your ebay brake pads????? Think about it!! I would bet my truck on it that if this event did take place you would have your truck back up and running with fresh brake pads 7-10days (and thats being very generous) quicker with AZ than if you attempted to get this ebay seller to replace them under warranty. And if your intent is to just purchase another set of these $12 brakes rather than have them covered under warranty then guess what your already above the cost of the $22 set! I just don't get how you think its more intelligent? I mean I really do understand what its like to have to be on a budget and pinch pennies where ever possible but it is $10 for something that could litteraly be life or death I know which one I'm choosing! I'm not saying that the Duralst pads can't or won't fail either but at least I have the ability to do research on them and see what kind of failure rate the actually have rather than a silly little gold seal picture on the webpage that says "30 days money back satisfaction guaranteed". And then to top it all off if you would have just ordered them from AZ you would most likely already have them (since they have 1-2 day shipping to most locations in the US) and you wouldn't have had to create a profile and ask a question that you would have not needed to know by just purchasing it through AZ as their website doesn't need to be cross referenced!!

PS:Can't help but sit back and laugh when I read your intelligent responses.
Very well said. I guess some people see helping these days as being d*** heads. Strange.


<-- I like this little guy.

What help was given? I had already bought the brake pads I just needed the correct part numbers to give to the seller to make sure the correct brake pads were being sent. What am supposed to do with the response "what did you do that for you should of bought them from autozone" What? I was supposed to buy 2 sets of brake pads. I just said clearly in the post I bought these brake pads and even gave the link to them. Do none of you have to ability to understand what you have read? All I wanted was the part numbers. But instead you guys all act like I have committed a sin because I bought a cheap set off ebay. Where did anybody say that the brake pads I bought was a lessor quality? Here is where. By you saying that I should of bought a higher quality brake pad for $22 applies that I have bought a lessor quality part. When you say I will be submitting another post asking about how to change my hood and fender because of my "$12" brake pads have failed, is YOU saying that I have a lesser brake pad installed. Like I said do you not understand what you have read or typed? With all your long response are you trying to convince me or yourself with your brake choice. And P.S 1. return shipping is not free. 2. I would already have the brake pads in my hand before going to the garage since for that price I could buy 2 sets to the 1 set from autozone. And NEVER have I seen a brake pad fail regardless of where it was made or price paid. Where out yes. fail, NO. Now you understand when I say I have to sit back and laugh at the response's. It is over and done with and I already found out the answer to my own question days ago. But yet you still keep rambling on about my parts purchase and about how great autozone is. You must work them or represent them in some way lol, I mean come on.

I had already figured out that they were probably made in China before the confirmation because of the low price. I don't care were there made honestly.

And to be honest here I wasn't purposely acting like a *****. But if I get a dick response be prepaid for a dick response back. If nobody new the answer to my question that's fine. But why post "why did you do that go buy them from autozone" when I have already said I had ALREADY bought the brake pads from ebay and just needed the oem part number to confirm to seller so the right parts would be sent. The part number would of been helping, not advice to go buy another set of brake pads.

This thread is cute . Funny how the brake pads your buying are total **** and also you can get better quality pads for the same price locally as stated above.

How about you take your head out of your *** hole and look for the part number your self. Its not that hard to find part numbers.

YES ITS your choice what to buy for your vehicle. But your not making the smart choice.... I hope that these pads you buy work well because When you cant stop in time for that little child crossing the road then you can think about us trying to talk you into buying quality pads.

ITS like changing pads when the rotor has 10 % life left... IS that even worth it ? Will it work yes. IS it safe ??? NO

Just my honest opinion. Instead of having an attitude from the 1st response I dont blame these guys talking to you like this.. The way you ask is the way you receive on these kind of sites. SO instead of asking for the dam part number over and over go find it your self.

What help was given? I said I would have helped you had you not repsonded in the way that you did I didn't say I did help you.I had already bought the brake pads I just needed the correct part numbers to give to the seller to make sure the correct brake pads were being sent. What am supposed to do with the response "what did you do that for you should of bought them from autozone" He was saying that you SHOULD HAVE bought them from AZ its called sarcasim! What? What? I don't know what this is for you already said what at begining of your last question! I was supposed to buy 2 sets of brake pads. Well buying two sets is your plan as you stated below in this very same repsonse. I just said clearly in the post I bought these brake pads and even gave the link to them. And den! Do none of you have to ability to understand what you have read? Do you have the ability to understand what you are writing? All I wanted was the part numbers. I told you I would have given you what you wanted but you responded to the first reply like an a** But instead you guys all act like I have committed a sin because I bought a cheap set off ebay. We don't think you commited a sin we were simply trying to point out the fact that not all brakes are created equally and not know where or who makes them is a pretty big gamble. Where did anybody say that the brake pads I bought was a lessor quality? Here is where. By you saying that I should of bought a higher quality brake pad for $22 applies that I have bought a lessor quality part. I'm still failing to see where I said it was a higher or lessor quality! I do see where I said "AZ has a set of Duralastpads (which are a well know and reputable company) for $22" When you say I will be submitting another post asking about how to change my hood and fender because of my "$12" brake pads have failed, is YOU saying that I have a lesser brake pad installed. This is a true statement in the sense that no one wants to help someone who acts like a baby with sh*** responses when they don't get the perfect response to their question. Like I said do you not understand what you have read or typed? Again do you not understand what you have read or typed? With all your long response are you trying to convince me or yourself with your brake choice. I'm just trying to prevent the death of another blazer due to a bad owner at this point! And P.S 1. return shipping is not free. Either is a second set of pads 2. I would already have the brake pads in my hand before going to the garage since for that price I could buy 2 sets to the 1 set from autozone. yeah but not before you post another question asking what the correct part number is And NEVER have I seen a brake pad fail regardless of where it was made or price paid. I have and the consequences are not worth being cheap. Where out yes. fail, NO. Well sure they wear out its called a "wear item" for a reason. Now you understand when I say I have to sit back and laugh at the response's. I still don't get it what I do get is that you just can't seem to understand that help was being offered and instead of taking it politley you had to throw a hissy fit like a child! It is over and done with and I already found out the answer to my own question days ago. By days ago you mean yesterday since thats when you posted that you had your answer correct? You wouldn't have had to find any answer if you had just ordered it from AZ But yet you still keep rambling on about my parts purchase and about how great autozone is. My response is not about how great AZ is in fact I don't even shop there I shop at Advance Auto Parts. The topic was the brake pads and how AZ sells some that you actually know where the come from You must work them or represent them in some way lol, I mean come on. No representation of them at all it was just the company brought up in the first response so thats what I stuck with.

Go reread the post you dumb ***. Can you read? I already found the part numbers long ago. I won't be able to stop for a child because I have a cheaper set of brake pads on the back of my blazer. Yea ok. Must be I have no front brakes huh? You do understand that 60-70% of brake force goes to the front end and 30-40% gets split to the rear don't you? Do you understand that most of the stopping power goes to the front of the vehicle don't you? Or your back would be locking up and sliding out on you constantly. My brake pads will be just fine and I could care less about any of you and what your opinions are about them.
