I appreciate the time and effort you put into it. I am also glad that it went public.We all feel alot better now about things.I hope you dont let it get to you.I have read all the comments and I don't think anyone was pointing bullets at you. I hope this doesn't put you off the site. You are a valuable asset to it.....eddie

Shaun and All,

As usual the messenger has been shot. I appointed myself twice now to
compile a list of people who were interested in trying to get a rotor made.
Neither time have I researched the company or gone about getting quotes.
However each time, I have received numerous queries wanting to know, where
they'd be made(all kinds of concerns about them being outsourced), who we
could sue when they failed, and how we could protect ourselves from getting
screwed. I got a call from a concerned IML'er this past weekend who pointed
out links to inconsistencies with Durabrake on the web, and I wanting time
to research it further, spent an hour this morning, going through everyone
who had emailed me so I could give them a heads up privately rather than
insulting a potential vendor on the list publicly. Obviously I shouldn't
have wasted the time sending it privately as Dick Woodside so clearly
pointed out by posting it publicly less than 5 minutes after I sent it out.
And sheesh I am sorry I pointed any of this out, but I felt some
responsibility as I had compiled the list of people willing to get shafted
by purchasing rotors.

Meanwhile I was unsure as there have been numerous stories on the IML about
your only protection when dealing with an unknown vendor is to use a credit
card.... Well Shaun never posted that we could pay him with PayPal, but
alert member Harvey, did email us all back this morning and let us know
about the PayPal Option with an additional fee.

Anyway, Shaun I'm sorry to drag you into this publicly, but you seem to be
very forthcoming and I'm sure you've made everyone feel quite comfortable
with doing business with Durabrake. I certainly appreciate your willingness
to wade through the IML email for the past month.

Meanwhile, I'd like to tell everyone I have no association with Durabrake or
Precision Brakes, if you choose to do business with any of the above
companies. Neither company has badmouthed the other, all information
mentioned has come from members of the list. I vowed several years ago,
never to do anything with the IML again, and I regret getting involved this
time. The IML has turned into a bunch of loud mouthed blowhards and whiney
non-doers. Only reason I'm still lurking is there are a still a couple of
members who are jewels of information and kindness who haven't been run off.


Going back to lurk now.

Leslie
