Default tokico illumina adjustable shocks

I've been doing some research on these shocks. Looking for good deals, comparing prices and whatnot. And from what I've noticed so far is that some sites sells them as a bundle w/ all 4 while others sell them as single parts (i.e only front) my question is the discrepancy in prices and the possibility of the product being FAKE??(like Tein S.Tech springs)
For example:

http://www.archcartpro.com/use...&Year=

This site sells the whole set for about $125 while

http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/BU3456 (front shock) under the description it also state *right only*???? I don't quite understand that. Can someone elaborate on that?

(rear shock)
http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/prod/BU2847

The sum would be around $221.

There's quite a few sites that sell them individually like this one

http://www.racepages.com/produ...66978

For $112. The list goes on.

Why are the prices so different and could some of them be fake?

Can anyone give me a reliable and trustworthy site(or location within SoCal) to purchase one?

Thanks in advance.

Ummm the first site http://www.archcartpro.com/use...&Year= is NOT selling the whole set for $125.. that's the price for EACH shock.

I got mine from ebay brand new for around $360 a set shipped. That's the cheapest I've found so far... I've noticed most "race" shops sell them for about $400+
