Default Fox Coilovers?

I found these coilovers on ebay for around 300$ for a ek sedan..
I was wondering if anybody have heard of people using 'fox' coilovers other than offroading and how low these would generally go?
Please bear in mind that I live overseas and shipping cost almost doubles my spendings but these coils ship worldwide for 15$
Any suggestions would be appreciated or details and heres the link i guess:
FOX Coilover Suspension Coilovers Shock Fit Honda Civic EK EK4 EK9 EM1 96 00 eBay
are they any good?

Truth of the matter is, someone will buy them, and they will be one of the thousands of people who will give me a call, or some other company who make a real quality coilovers once they fail. These companies continue to pop up because there is really a market for the stupid people, who are both cheap, and stupid. It's the reality of things. The fact is, you can't make anything last in that price range, if I could make a more affordable coilover in the 20 years I been doing this, I would have capitalized on that a long time ago, unfortunately I have something called integrity. I don't feel too bad for those that buy all this cheap ****, they will learn a hard lesson. But the scene has changed, most people want to just slam their rides, and ruin their chassis for looks. Function is not important or there wouldn't be a market for this crap. These were made to fill that needs, can we say STANCE. Stance has hurt the market more than in has made it better. Oh how times have changed! I've seen many of these in person, direct from the manufacturer. We have companies from China hit us up daily to try to sell me this crap. Most are twin tube **** dampers, and won't last long, the craftsmanship is poor as well as the materials.
