Default Kuruma Motoring on ebay, Good or Bad?

I found that Kuruma Motoring on ebay sells the suspension setup i wanted for $700 shipped which is GC coilovers and tokico illumnas. Are they a reputable seller??? Does he sell shitty products???? Can anyone tell me their experience with them??
Thanks

Only good experience. I bought the suspension elements from them twice and everything was OK. Fast shipping, good communication, great prices.

karuma motoring looks pretty reputable to me, i believe they've got a great feedback if i remember correctly.....

But damn are they expensive!! You can usually find the same product elsewhere a LOT cheaper. I'm not sure if this is true in your particular case, but look around before you buy, I wouldn't be surprised if you found the same thing $100 cheaper elsewhere.

I've purchased a few parts from them. They're a pleasure to deal with and only have positive things to say.

Great seller for sure!

His # is huge! 33,395
I bought something from him but I don't remember what...
Are you sure about suspension? I have just seen too many people install Ground Controls and NOT like them. My suggestion is spend a little more money and buy some KONI yellows! A Koni/Eibach combo is ideal for the street IMO.

I think if your patient you can find anything they sell at much better prices..As a rule I don't buy from places that charge me both tax and shipping..I am sure just about any HT sponser can beat there price and your supporting HT in the process

bad.

They refuse to cancel an order I emailed them about less than ten minutes after I ordered it.
They also NEVER answer their phone and RARELY their emails.

But yeah...I suppose if customer service and general humaneness arent taken into consideration...theyre ok.
