Default Progressive-422 shocks for heritage

My bike is a 2000 heritage with 14,000 miles.I am considering replacing the stock shock with the progressive 422-4037c shocks.
American Classic Motors sells this shock on e-bay with free shipping for $390.Others have it for $490. Any one had any dealings with these people.$100 difference is quite a difference although I like it.
My dealer wants $490.
How did you like the shocks compared to the stock ones?
Thanks
Jim

That's where I bought my 422's and I'm very happy with them and the deal I got.. I think I paid $365 shipped for mine.. Ride is much better with the 422's compared to stock for me..

Put me down for a me too. Ride is better/more controlled and they lower quite a bit. I think I paid about $350 a year or so ago.
