Default Slotted and drilled rotors on Ebay for 116?

Hello all. New here and learning. Didnt see anything when searching but this seems ridiculous. Ebay has from Detroti axle front and rear slotted and drilled rotors and ceramic pads for 116.00 SOmething has to be wrong.American muscle offers something similar for 293. Am I wrong? Is this something I should consider? Just doesnt seem right for the price.

I would pass. Do you race or auto cross your car to warrant something like those?

I just installed the drilled and slotted rotors with pads bought from American Muscle on my 2011 v6 a couple weeks ago. They feel great and don't rust when they get wet, so far

Been in the car trade for along time. When you buy from these Mustang supply house, you are guaranteed to pay a Mustang tax premium. I have been using the fleabay D&S rotors for years on my 07 with no issues. Just follow the break in procedure and look for ones that are zinc coated, it will reduce rapid rust build up.

I used slotted rotors of a previous Mustang with no issues. I have read that drilled rotors are known to develop cracks. Just sayin'
