Those are the worst konis I've ever seen! I think the seller is very optimistic about the condition of them.

message I sent him on ebay:

Are you seriously suggesting those COMPLETELY dead shocks with some random sticker residue on them are in "nearly new!" condition? Those poor, original shocks gave up so long ago I can't calculate it. Please tell me this is just a picture mix-up OR that you'll pull down the auction and throw these away!
