RMT does list them at $200/each, but their website might be out of date.

Their website is no different than Arnott; the company that they buy the reconditioned air suspension parts from.
You are instructed to personally contact them after which I've received messages stating both companies are Not accepting cores for R230's.
So recap; it's been about 2 years since anyone has bought cores regardless of core prices listed online.
