Surely the cost from DMGRS is too similar to make this a worthwhile consideration, providing those come as they did 4 or 5 years ago? Especially when you take in warranty issues (not there is much to go wrong lol). Or are you looking into this for a mathematical exercise?
I do wish I had bought a pair when I got my subframe. If I recall, they were $25 each then - I was bringing other things in, so there wouldnt have been a lot, more. I did get a few bits and pieces though.

£2,899.71 is for 25x sets (£115.99 per set).
Shipping is £231.98 by sea, not including duty or tax, these fee's should calculate at roughly £765 if I have my sums correct. This gives us a £3,900 landing price once fees are paid.
£155 per pair buying price once in the UK, but I'm sure we can get that price down a bit further by using some hard, but friendly business tactics, as there is certainly no profit to be made.
If these arms have the cup in the correct place, then it may well be worth a punt.
It may also be a good idea to place a sample order first for one pair, make sure the quality is what we want. Shipping will be expensive for one set as it will need to be sent the Express method, its food for thought.
