>>>There is NO way they are, or were, that expensive.   Somebody was 
totally screwing up that quote to you.   EBC pads are about $110-130 a set, 
depending on the compound.

Another good option if you are in the UK is to contact John Freeth at 
Performance Braking.   I think Roger Coates was able to get pads almost 
instantly, at a very good price.
