Look at this link:
http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/89...ber_48530.html
Brand Name: Saiding

The eBay seller is using the exact same picture as the China seller with his added watermark. In that same link above look under the Brand Name, it says Saiding, NOT Toyota / Lexus or KYB. The name of the company selling those shocks is Guangzhou Saiding Auto Parts: http://saidingautoparts.en.alibaba.com/



Be warned. If it's too good to be true it usually is.......




FYI, counterfeit airbags w/ OEM logos came out of Guangzhou so why not shocks, water pumps, sparkplugs etc.
