And the calipers being extended into the rotors....what does that even mean?

Do you know what brand brake pads they put on? Cheap pads can easily (and unevenly) transfer the pad material to the rotors (i.e. "warped" rotor) and cause the vibrations.
Hmmm... that makes sense. No idea what brand. Basically, he's saying the calipers where out to far due to execcive wear on pads. My BS meter was pegged but he was good up to that point. Also, some days the pulsing is worse than others. Not sure what that's about. Although now that I type this your theory about crappy pads makes sense.
