Lightbulb Genuine or not genuine?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to buy a coil pack for my 2001 Lancer MR. The guys selling this one, insist that they're genuine but they're a good $200 cheaper than other genuine ones I've seen.

What do you think? How can I tell?

Here's a closer picture of the one on offer.

Cheers,
Mikey.

it wont be the factory coil pack from the dealer. Its just a cheap OE replacement. Like if you were to go to autozone and get ACDelco brand or something

Thanks for the reply!

How can you be sure? They seller is offering a money back guarantee that its genuine and really insisting that it is.

He's charging $110. Is that out of the range of possibility?

Here (in Australia) it seems the cost is usually around $340 (Which is about 300 US dollars). So maybe this seller is just importing it from somewhere where the packs are cheaper?
