Default Ebay again.....

During the latest drunken ebay session, I bid on some AFR 225's brand new with upgraded springs. I bid 1700 and Im winning right now. I figured I could flip them considering they are 2500 brand new.... Should I retract the bid or buy them?

I think they will go up past that before the bidding ends. But that would be a good *** deal for some 225's. Are they the small or large cumbustion chambers?
