The frame is shown here but if you add all the other bits they are selling then the return is £1,589.00.

having said that who would buy their second hand discs at that price when brand new can be got for just under £130 from what appears to be a very good Chinese supplier on fleabay.

I'd never buy those Chinese rotors.
And not because they are Chinese, but because I'd never buy some no brand spare part.
I've spent €. 440 to replace my spoiled 300 mm. rotors with some Brembo ones.
What could we expect from €. 100 ones?

True in some respect but when you find out that some of the "Branded items are "Made in China" but finished in Europe and branded accordingly it can make sense to go straight to the maker and cut out the middle man.

It also helps if like me you are on a budget and therefore as long as it does it job correctly and effectively then I will use it.

You're right.
Whoever does'nt have some chinese stuff at home?
But, that's not the point.
Many famous brands, both of the cars ant of the bikes, make to build its stuff on east and, of course, far east countries.
But, a quality brand (is supposed) to check the quality and, above all, to guarantee its stuff.
By now, I buy the eggs even on ebay.
But, what it would be the quality and the warranty on those rotors?
