Yeah man I wouldn't jump right up to $500 right away. Low ball him for $300 and see what he says. It's easy to go up, much more difficult to go down. Do they come with the adjusting wrench? Find something wrong with them and pick at it lol

ya he said that they guy that he bought them from used them in winter a lot (i dont know what he means by that) but i can say thats theres more of a chance for them to blow out or something like that but im gonna start at 300 and then hopefully move up a little bit from that and they will be mine and i will be low

Those don't look like H&R to me (from the paint). Unless someone has repainted them, they are not H&R. Also they do not look complete.

Check for a stickers on the coils and see what they say. It should also tell you which model they are.
