You know I always like to have an healthy 'discussion' right...
What you say is all agreeable to me mate...
1- Did at any point I mention that QS doesn't sell Replicas? I'm sure both of us noticed them HREs that they were having on display the last we were there right?

2- When comparing the price that QS tags on them GARRAs and comparing against the price that buyer has been quoted - To me it makes sense regardless if its ORIGINAL, REPLICA, GRADE AAA or GRADE ZZZ!!! Simply because QS's price is always premium compared to others.
Which is why I mentioned in my end statement that if at all the buyer finds the necessity - he can contact OZ/SPARCO's Local Distributor and confirm on the supply confirmation of their products to that particular shop.
Healthy discussion it is...
With reference to your earlier comments....

RM2.1k for an set of 18" Garras is definitely something to cast a doubt at but at the same time its something that is possible in many ways too.
Stock Clearance or Promotion run by the shop comes into the equation. Alternatively, they shop can get it in at a cheaper cost via the distributor.
Not disrespect to QUICK-SAVE but aren't their prices always a premium as compared to other shops? So if QUICK-SAVE is offering it at 2.55k and the price quoted here is at RM2.1k, I don't see it being unrealistic at all.
If there's an in-depth need to garner more clarification, one can directly contact them OZ/SPARCO distributors to confirm if they have supplied their products to the particular shop. Easier & more Safer....

You started the post by saying RM2100 is doubtful (to get ORI Sparco, i presume) and then you followed that by stating it maybe the shops are clearing stocks and. or can get better distri pricing for rims (which will be read as you referring to these rims as ORI Sparco), no...??
In the next breath, you stated that QS usually sells their products are higher premium, and its feasible that the other shops could sell it at a lower price point than QS.... and this is directly following the paragraph above, at which you are referring to these rims as ORI Sparco.... no??
Hahahahahahah..... i am reading too much between the lines, or izzit my england give back to teacher di....???
