Default Think I got a bargain

Been on the lookout for better shocks/springs for a while and spotted these on ebay. Sent him a "do you have a buy it now" email as soon as I saw them listed but he wanted to let the auction run. I was thinking that £120-160 would have been cheap but I bid and got them for a steal.

Hopefully pick them up tomorrow and fit in the new year

Gotta love an xmas bargain, personally I think the postage put most people off.

They look a bit older than 3000 mile shocks for me, but if they are in good working order well done

I'm chuffed, was looking at sti reds for about £150-200 in some cases but the KYB's get good reviews from people on here so my classic should ride well on them. At the end of the day, theyre cheap and its not a lot of £ to spend to see how good they are.

I love it when ebayers do that.
When I bought my 2.5 litre short engine, I asked him for a BIN and offered him £1200, it was brand new still in it's packing crate.
He refused and I got it for £900
Left me money to get it forged

The thing is, I didnt actually offer a price, I just asked if he had a BIN price. I'll break it to him once theyre in my boot that I was willing to pay nearly double
