Those are inexpensive even for cheap shocks....
Regardless of the description they are very likely the same Asian repros everyone else is selling.
Do you have a copy of the Honda Shop Manual or Parts List for your bike? Get one here:

No personal experience with these shocks, but from looking around and posting a couple months ago, figured out quickly you get what you pay for. Personally saving up to get a set of Progressive rear shocks, just missed one in the classifieds earlier this week that sold for 55 with shipping! Any decent pair of shocks gonna cost more than 150 new. Hagons are another well reviewed option. Ikon(Koni) are nice but really pricey. Can find old Konis for sale here and there, but not 100% if you can still get parts for rebuilds. Good luck with the hunt!
