Default Why so cheap?

check these seats on eBay. How come they are so cheap?? I know they made the shipping high but that is normally what you pay for shipping for seats

CHECK IT

Someone would have to buy them and do a quality check... as long as you are not a whore/snob who like's brand names (most do )... then they look pretty nice

Pictures can be decieving...

I got a set of Tenzo's before on ebay and they came about a feet too short and a feet to small, looked like it was made for a midget.

yeah it's probably cause it's a no name and the shipping is about $180.

It says "Carbon Fiber LOOK" - means it looks like Carbon Fiber, but is probably ABS plastic with cheap rubberized fabric stretched over it. All show no go.

It looks like plastic with some crappy fabric cover on it. Have you ever sat on the "racing seat" rocking chair at like best buy or ikea? Yes, I bet it would feel very similar to that because thats all that was as well; plastic with some cover on it.
