Thats a very good deal for complete third members, go for it. as far as the rear gears being black, i have no idea.

That could be burned gear oil. Can you see it in person?

Looks like they've had a pattern run on them (the red stuff on the ring). If so, see he he can send you some shots of the face of the gear (where the pinion pushes on the ring)
But yeah, 300 for a set is a hell of a deal.
