Hey all, so I'm shopping for some new pistons and cylinders. I was thinking of going used, but I'm worried about wear and stuff, so I figure new is the way to go. The two I'm stuck between are the ebay ones and the bird site's version.

ebay for $299

PP for $550

Can anyone see the reason for 250 extra for the PP ones? Is there a difference? And before anyone asks.. Nickies are way out of my range.

Thanks for the info
