Has Anyone Seen These???

I am curious to know how well these units are made and if they are as bright as the stock setup.

Many ebay sellers inflate the shipping and handling charges to increase their profit without having to share it with ebay. Ebay fees are charged on selling prices. No fees are charged on "handling" charges.
Sometimes you'll see items worth much more selling for $.99 with $59.99 or more shipping just to avoid fees.

Also, they hope that some idiot ebay buyer will see the item BIN listed at 99 cents and think it is a steal.

They are most likely imports, and I have mixed feelings about them. APC and IPCW bring in decent stuff, but I'd steer clear of anyone else. As far as brightness, the diamond cut reflectors have a different pattern, but the bulb should dictate the lumens. I'd pass on them my self.

Yeah, That's exactly what I thought. I am aware of the ebay loopholes and understand maximizing profit through avoidance. I just like the look of the product and was curious about the quality and brightness compared to oem or stock. I would really like to be able to do the 05 conversion with the newer style harley lights, but they're a little pricey.
