Default High Performance Outlet - Tein?

This company sells on Ebay with what seem like really low prices. Has anyone bought from them and have anything to offer positve or negative?

That's mainly why I'm asking. This vendor says they guarantee that the springs are real, but how do you tell? If anyone has any experience with this vendor, please let me know.

If there's any doubt, then don't buy from them.

There are plenty of other places that sell legitimate Tein products. Buy from someone trustworthy.

I was going to link you to Tein's page on identifying conterfeit springs, but apparently they let their domain name expire so they currently don't have a web site up . . .

Well, again, that's why I'm asking the question - To gain confidence in them if people have had a good experience with them. If not, then I'll pass.
The draw is the price, which is better than any other I've found, so I'm trying to determine (by asking here and other places) if they are trustworthy.

There are links on TEIN's website that explain what to look for when purchasing a set from someone other than a dealer. Hope this helps.

Thanks. I could only find info on the S-Tech springs. Would it also apply to the H-Tech? Or did I miss the H-Tech information?
