Well considering that seller that you linked to has done over 114,000 transactions with a 98% positive feedback score, meaning over 110,000 people have been satisfied with their products, I would say it's pretty safe bet that you're dealing with a reputable seller who probably has pretty good products. It's not whether you can trust EBay or not, it's whether you can trust the specific seller. Always check their feedback.

Got mine from ebay for about 180 with shipping. That was for the black ones and their pricing for those went down as well to about 115 now.

$100, $150 or $200 isn't that expensive, but what about quality of these halos on Ebay? are u satisfied with them?

I know there's a parts-wanted forum but any of you guys going over to Halo's want to sell off your stockers? Even if they're a little hazy (~10% hazy) I'd be willing to purchase them to replace mine.

Shoot me a PM on how much you're wanting for both driver and pass.
