HID Kits

I saw a few auctions on Ebay for HID kits for BMW and Mercedes that were only going for a couple hundred bucks. Anybody know about the quality/reliability of these? I also saw an OEM Phillips kit for Mercedes and BMW for 350, which I thought was pretty low.

damn, looks like all of that guys ads got ganked with the quickness... must have been trying to sell a lot of non-existent hid kits to a bunch of willing buyers. i noticed that all of that guys auctions ended around the same time, and he only had like 2 seller feedbacks. i guess ebay is looking out for its customers for once...
