There's some pretty cheap Tein springs up on eBay, but I'm hesitant to buy because there's been plenty of fake springs sold on there. The few I've looked at look legit according to Tein's website...Has anybody bought Teins off eBay and have had a good experience? Any recommended sellers?

Those are the guys on eBay, $116 for springs sounds too good to be true:

Did you compare the springs and the box with the notice Tein has up on their website? Does it match the real ones?

yea i found the company through bizrate.com so i was skeptical, but they got their policies laid out there, and paypal certified them so i went for it. They were $140 shipped. I kno i got exactly what's pictured, even the stickers biggrin.gif , and they were at my door in like 4 days! it was nuts!
I picked them over pretty well before throwing them on the shocks, i remember there were no stickers on springs, the text was printed on, but i hadnt seen TIEN's msg then.
I'll repost with final judgment..

Alright ive compared my springs and shipping box to those posted on TIEN's website, and im declaring these are AUTHENTIC.

$114 from high performance outlet is the best deal you are going to find on legit, brand new springs wink.gif

I'm having some problems with this company. I'd suggest everyone else holds off until I get a sucessful resolution and update this thread.
