Default C5 powdercoated caliper exchange

**************UPDATE 2/13/13*****************

My phone numbers are changing. My toll free number will still be 888-644-7221, which will ring to my cell phone, which is 678-357-5844. The landline, 678-957-6202 will be taken off line after a month or so transition period.


So, my contact numbers are

678-357-5844 and 888-644-7221. Both ring to the same phone.

**************************************** *****
Some of you are familiar with my work. If you aren't check out my gallery by clicking on my signature and exploring my website.

I have an exchange program for C5 brakes, currently with only one set because a previous customer decided not to return a set.

The price is $250 plus shipping and with a refundable $300 core charge.


edit, 5/4/06 I am going to institute a couple of new policies. I think I have lost a 2nd set of C5 calipers now to someone deciding the core charge, with shipping subtracted was an inexpensive way to buy a set of brakes.

Shipping will now be a flat rate $30 and paid up front instead of subtracting from the core refund. Some shipments are a little less, some are a little more, but this will keep it tidy.

3 days is a little extreme for cores, (suggested in the C6 forum) but if they aren't shipped and a tracking number provided after 10 days, I will deduct $25 per day from the core charge.

If your car is in the shop or paint or anything like that when your name comes up, let me know, and as soon as you are ready, you will be next in line. If you aren't ready, don't let me send them to you.

So, it will now be $580 up front, with a full $300 refund when I get your brakes, assuming they are sent back on time. If some extraordinary circumstance pops up after you order, just let me know and I will work with you. I'm not doing the penalty to make extra money, but to keep the list moving.

If you want off the list because of the changes, just let me know.

Thanks for everyones patience.



*** There currently is noone on the waiting list and I have 3 sets available ***

Hey Mike!

How do I get in the queue? Do I need to contact your shop and put up a deposit?

Thanks!

Hey Mike quick question, have you coated a set to match the paint on the 50th ann cars? Or maybe can you match or come close to that color?
Thanks, Leo

Does anyone want a set in yellow/black with black brackets like pictured above?

It appears the 1st person in line has, or is going to, back out after I've finished the work. They are ready immediately and at this point I would rather sell them to someone else.
