Best price for Koni struts?

What is the best price anyone has paid for new Koni struts? I got a quote of $520.80 from shox.com for a set of four. If anyone has found them cheaper please let me know the price and the company or website that you saw them at.
Thanks!

they're about the same everywhere. I bought one (to replace one I destroyed) last week from Tirerack for $131. when you buy 4, that's $524.

How did you destroy one of your Koni's? I thought Koni's were supposed to be the best and last the life of the car. Was it just a freak incident or what?

Also what springs do you have installed and what setting do you have the strut set at? Do you have a camber kit installed/ have you had any problems with uneven tire wear?
Thanks!

the strut was bottomed out on a $hitty tulsa road. If the shock isn't covered under warranty, then I'm going to send the claim to the city to pay for it, because it was caused by a bump in the road that has been there for years.... obviously neglect of road maintenance on the city's fault..

(this bump is the size of a speed bump right at the end of an entrance ramp with VERY little acceleration room, so you must run over it, or get your car smashed by oncoming traffic.)
