Do you know how much are the bi-xenons if bought from yr dealer? The one that people are getting from Steve are rejections, thats why they are so cheap. And I think they are not available anymore.
You will probably be looking at $600-700 if you buy aftermarket HIDs But your warranty will be voided if you have aftermarket HIDs. I wouldnt want to take that risk.
I think someone (rrf) is selling his Xenon assembly, maybe you can shoot him an e-mail and check it out. Anything around $1000 for a set of genuine used Xenons is a real bargain!! They cost more than $2200 at your local parts dept!!

Steve's Bi-Xenons are factory "seconds"
If you find Bi-Xenon from someone else for Steve's price you can be sure they are also "seconds" or are "hot". As Harris said, the MBZ list price is Very High.
Steve is selling Bi-Xenons from the Netherlands. They are about $850. Steve picks up "seconds", (stock that was refused by MBZ, because it has a scratch, broken or ???, anything less than perfect). That is why they are a good price. Often he reworks them so they are OK for your use. (There is not too much he can do with a scratch though). Once reworked they are probably fine, unless you are very picky. Each flaw will be unique.
If you live in US be sure to get US lamps. Not Euro or Right hand drive.
Shipping from Netherlands can be rough on something as delicate as this. I suggest Air Freight only. That adds about $150-200 to the price. So Steve'e Bi-Xenons are about $1000, you take the chance on the flaw, (and the shipping).
If you are interested in a set of A1 condition used US Xenons for better than the price of Steve's seconds, then contact me.
