Default Chrome Air Shocks

I've decided to go with the air shocks that people have been raving about on the forums and have been looking on ebay. Road King shocks are fairly easy to find, but I'd rather go with the 12 inch Street Glide shocks since I want to be sure I stay flat footed on the bike. Now of course that means that Street Glide shocks are fairly hard to come by, and fetching a pretty decent price when they do come up.

So I was wondering if anyone has tried or knows anything about the chrome air shocks that are up on ebay. An example being

I'm guessing they would fit on an 07 sportster...I'm just wondering if they are any good. Just take off's bought cheap and chromed? Or are they just crappy shocks made to look pretty? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Exact same shocks I put on my '07 and I've been very happy with both looks and function.

Jireh cycles has the exact same one cheaper. And I believe they offer a one year warranty but you may want to double check that.
