I have bought 2 sets of Works front shocks for $50 each set... One we are still using as we bough them, but the other we ended up sending to Works for rebuild. Was still a good deal for us, but that set ended up costing a bit more $$$...
So just know what you are buying, and watch the deals... You can find some great deals for that much $$$.
we also bought 2 400ex shocks for $25 for one set (near new condition), and another for $15 with semi fresh aftermerket work done to it).
The deals are out there.
