I just gave a call from my work and a females voice claiming to be 'Amber' poped up on the answering machine. Doesn't mean anything other than someone has a phone line with an answering machine and a female friend/aquaintence (or is female) though... just another piece.

There are lots of VA listers, anyone famaliar with this area? Someone in school near Roanoke? Perhaps someone would care to drive up from VIR/Danville area? It's not a bad area for fun driving (been through there MANY times on motorcycle) if someone wants to go checking..

The seller is trying to pass off a recycled image of genuine Bosch assemblies. Notice how the yellow boxes are carefully cropped out.

There is a huge market for cheap copies, especially for older cars. Insurance companies love to push these kind of products on unsuspecting car owners during collision repairs.

Good call Redshift. You are right about the picture being cropped.
