emac,
A few of us who have been around a while have noticed this.
We suspect he is a gamer & scammer. He has a side kick on here that often responds.

On another note, I have been in a parts place & when they didnt have what I wanted, they looked on ebay & then gave me a price double what it was on there. The sales guy didnt realize I could see a reflection of his screen in the window behind him. Too many local parts places think they are owed a living from the public. Happens at dealers as well.

I know this is an old thread but in 2019 I was told on the phone by the Bilstein Australian dealer that Bilsteins for KL Cherokee simply dont exist... then local JEEP Stealership quoted me $45 each for the plastic irrigation hose type clip things for front struts - PLUS $10 shipping (had to come from Melbourne warehouse of course).

Got all 4 Bilstein Shocks + top strut mounts + plastic clips + spring seats from Summit Racing in USA for just under AUD $1400 INCLUDING AUD $90 Fedex shipping. Those plastic clips were USD $3.20 each... It was all at my door in Cairns FOUR DAYS LATER. I then had to wait nearly 2 weeks for new Dobinsons rear springs to come from Brisbane - ordered same time as the stuff from USA - before I could actually fit everything...

Bilsteins in Aus cost generally 2 to 3 times AT LEAST - what they cost FROM the USA (not IN the USA - thats FROM the USA).
