I've never seen those before, but the red flags are going up like crazy.
1. That seller has a lot of negative feedback in the last 12 months- 355.
2. The "Buy it Now" price is way to low for anything of quality.
3. Real projector lamps are HID and they're not quite as easy to install as pop-in-pop-out. They require several other parts to work (ballast, igniter, etc) and they're not legal. These look like cheap APC knock-offs.
4. What does DOT/SAE "Stamped" mean?
5. Buyer beware!
