Should I replace with OEM?

Hey guys. I'm currently trying to sell my car. My question is the rear struts need replacing. Should I go with OEM struts or go ahead and put some aftermarket struts and springs? I had a mechanic quote me at $300 for just replacing the rear struts and bushing, seemed a little high to me. Anyone know of any online places with good prices too? Thanks.

Thats soo crooked, but true. If he's trading into a dealer I say leave it as is.

You can probably get cheaper struts on ebay. but $300 for all sound decent with allignment I assume.
