Default Type R piston rings..?

I am possibly getting a b18c5 with some other goodies at a price i can't refuse but it needs new piston rings cause the compression on it is screwed up. Is this the only problem? also how much would it cost to replace the rings?

I just ordered new OEM rings for my GSR for $110 from http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org

You might find them for a little less, but the prices I've usually seen have been 100-120.

You have to factot in, if the compression is bad, it could also be valves, or there could be cylinder wall scuffing more likely.
