Getting Konis Rebuilt Is a Joke!

I sent out an inquiry to Koni-NA concerning getting Koni dampers rebuilt. This is the response I got:

"$165 each plus parts. Parts can run $80-100 per damper and turn around right now is about 8 weeks"

To which I replied:

"Pardon my ignorance, but why would anyone pay for a rebuild when a new damper is available for less? For a Porsche 914, fronts are listed for ~$200 and rears for ~$225 from your own website! No pun intended here, just an honest question."

I haven't got a response yet, but I will keep you guys posted.

It would be somewhat understanable if the above pricing was for custom revalving, but just for a rebuild?

I guess that's why people in the know post used Konis for sale at ~$50/pair.
