I had a guy fixing my brakes for free. He's a real nice honest guy and all (I thought). He makes me buy the shoes & pads and I do. Next thing I know he's telling me the grease looks ancient in the bearings and he needs to remove, clean, and pack new grease in them and now I have to spend more money on seals and grease! He even acted like it was my fault the grease got that way. It probably would have been cheaper to just go to a real shop and pay full price. At least they would have just done the pads and shoes!
