Default Genuine Toyota Spark Plugs On Ebay Shipped From China?

Has anyone seen these?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/6pcs-NEW-Gen...VVrTKx&vxp=mtr

It seems too good to be true, $35 shipped for a set of 6 oem plug. Well I am about to change my plugs and it seemed these popped up (if they are fake, damn they are faking everything now), I am afraid to use them will most likely buy from dealer, however these come in original packaging and labeled toyota/denso. Afraid they might be lurking around selling for the real deal who knows what if one blows up and goes into the engine?

Has anyone tried them?

No, but this seems genuine. I have asked the seller if he could supply 8 plugs. Thanks for the link.

BTW, the link you posted are the wrong plug. The correct lug is FK20HBR11. Link is here:

But this should be a 3 electrode plug, and the illustration is only showing a single electrode plug. I have sent the seller a question asking him if thy are in fact genuine Denso 3 electrode plugs.

for an extra 40 dollars, you dont have to second guess if they are real or not. and its something you dont want to chance on.

The description is dead on the money. The picture is not. Weird. Hopefully they arrive with three ground electrodes.

^^^^When I ordered them, the seller and I had an eMail discussion. He assured me that they would be the genuine 3 electrode plug FK20HBR11.

If they are not - there goin' right back.

I ordered these few days ago he actual sold me 8 for the price of 6, seller is located in Florida. Shipped $83.00 I'm at 61k miles so far I've replaced front rotors (brembo)they made it to 60k miles, project mu pads, air filter, cleaned mass air sensor with crc mass air cleaner, in cabin filter,topped off anti freeze, oil and filter changed. Once plugs are in I'll change them myself. The rest I'll have dealer do brake fluid change, check rear diff, check tranny fluid level, and value lash checked out. Their master tech Walter is the only one that works on my car. I have great dealership they actually let me hang in shop area while they're working on my car. I get to pick the master tech brain all the time.
