Dude, WTF? What are you the grammar police? Get a life. The guy is just asking a question.

As to your question, I would say that brakes would take a little bit to break in, so just give them a week or 2 and see what happens. What kind of noise are you hearing? I would think that if the place that you got them said that it's normal, you should have nothing to worry about. Just use common sense and your best judgement.
