Damn copper, 150!?!? You got ripped imo. I got my tokico Illumnias for 106 a piece from here... http://64.176.145.60/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=BU3532&Category_Code=MES

I love that place cause they sent my stuff to me right away and I got it within 5 days after my order on ground delievery! The intake we had a bit of problems with cause I asked for red and got grey, but that was ok cause after we got it we liked it. If you do go through them, tell them Nackersaccent (Brian) sent you.
