I do appreciate it.

So, MSRP on 58645 is $1,259.95.
A couple times a year these go on sale for 20% off, or $1007.96. Often with a free wrench, or some other goody, and always free shipping. Pretty much any shop will give 10% off (1133.96) if you call them-they aren't allowed to post prices below a certain amount online.
Also, if anyone wants to upgrade to the reservoir models, or reservoir with adjuster, it is MUCH cheaper to purchase them from the start, rather than adding those features later. It runs $845 a pair (plus shipping) to add those features (you can see service prices on their website). Whenever they go on sale, you can buy new ones for about $1480.
So, if someone wants them right now your deal will save them a little-and that's great. If they want something right now, and can pay for it, they probably are going to buy nicer shocks than yours though. If they are in no rush (like myself-I'll probably purchase around october-november), your deal isn't actually a deal for me. Your shocks would have to cost $600 for it to be worth my paying for the upgrades later on.
Not trying to criticize here-just letting you know what I'm thinking, as someone looking to buy a set of 2.5 coilovers this year.
