Is this a good deal at $6.66 per spark plug?

The price is OK but I wonder why he is unloading them? Are they a defective lot? Or is he just unloading them because they won't look correct in a factory class resto?

I bought three sets of the 2243s from him. He actually runs a full blown auto parts store in the north east. I suspect he has quite a few of these types of plugs after seeing the number of auctions he has run with them. I don't think he is dumping anything with the exception that I can't imagine a run on his store for for the 2245s locally or the 2243s either.

Here is an auction from the same guy for 2 sets of 2243s.

If he is a large parts store owner then I assume he is bright enough not to order plugs he has no market for. I would guess he bought up a large surplus stock from someone really cheap and he is now unloading them on ebay. I am surprised he doesn't list all the applications for each plug.

Odd, photo shows box of 4, quantity under the bid says 1, (3 available) yet in his dialog he says 8 plugs. He does not say two boxes. I'd clear that up before bidding.
