What's the best website to buy brake pads?

I use to buy JDM Seido-YA pads from more-japan.com ... I use to track one of my car a lot back then. And those pads were holding really good. But

But like the others say, check vendors... I'll probably check other vendors here to see if they carry those pads.

I clicked the link and was like wtf, i don't see seido-ya on there. They're having a pretty cool give-away raffle right now though.

About the brake pads, honestly, the Duralast pads from autozone are a great deal. They're lifetime warranty and will replace them (even with normal wear and tear) once you turn them in, no questions. Just have to give them your info and keep the receipt. remember to bring the bads in before they're completely worn down and they'll give you new pads. Good for regular driving but if you track your car, swap them out before the event and put them back in after.

how many times have you brought in your 370Z duralast pads? how many times have they swaped them out for new pads? just curious becasue this sounds too good to be true.

ie. i buy the pads and eat them up in 10k miles. i take them to autozone and wha-la i get new pads? the duralast pads are only $70.... are they just that crummy? do they eat up the rotors? does nissan say the duralast pads are sufficient when it comes to other braking issues. say if i have a rotor failure can they blame the duralast pads?
