Shimano SLX M7000 brakeset

The price on these seems almost too good to be true. So I figured I would give it a shot.  :o  The seller has sold 31 items and all the reviews are positive so hopefully I didn't loose my money. I offered $80 and the seller accepted it. $80 for a front and rear set of SLX brakes is pretty cheap. They come with non-finned resin pads but that is fine. They will most likely end up on my daughters bike anyway.

That is odd. It also causes a little concern. Not so much that I didn't place a second order though.  :o  I saw that eBay had a "$15 off of $60" coupon last night so I took the bait. I got an 11 spd XT shifter for $30 and an 11 spd SLX rear derailleur for $42. The total was $72 then they $15 came off making it $57. So far I am into the seller for $137 for M7000 SLX brakes and rear derailleur and a M8000 XT shifter. I figured the worst case scenario is that I get completely burned and I'm out $137 which will suck but someone on here has to be the guinea pig.

If you pay through PayPal, there is some kind of protection against bad sellers.

Yup. I'm thinking that getting burned is pretty slim but I like to prepare myself for complete disappointment. This way, it doesn't take much to keep me happy. Reverse psychology on myself.
