You got a month out of the rear derailleur? You must have been gentle. I remember a guy who had one die on the ride home from the bike shop after picking it up. I'd love to find a rear derailleur, but it'd go into a glass case, not on to my bike - unless I planned on making a wall hanger out of it.
