Nitro gas shocks cheap?

So i stumbled across this and i cant believe these are so cheap? $37.00 each. Anyone know about the quality of these? Or if you recommend another shock or strut..lemme know because im about to redo my suspension with WABFAB's 2"IFS lift so i might as well replace the shocks too..

Product description:
The product of over 40 years of engineering excellence, this shock is tough enough to stand up to almost anything. High-pressure gas charge (up to 200 psi) and spring-loaded piston rod ensure consistent performance and extended service life. Radial-tuned velocity-sensitive 10-stage valving (coil spring adjusts to varying road conditions) plus durable urethane bushing for the smoothest ride. Big 1-3/8" piston (except where space limitations prohibit) and big reservoir cylinder to resist heat and eliminate fade. With all-weather fluid included. For most 2WD and 4WD pickups including trucks with 2" to 8" lift kits. Dust boot not included.

I have the skyjacker nitros which I believe are pretty much the same things as those, and I'm happy with them. They are very stiff, and don't ride all that great, but as far as functionality goes they are fine. You get what you pay for.
