Is This A Scam?
I was just looking around the internet at Zipp stuff, when I came across this.
$800 404's
That can't possibly be right. I'm pretty sure its for a set, so that's 60% off MSRP.... This has to be a scam.

$876.99 to be more accurate. I doubt it's a "scam", but they are oddly affordable.

Well they have https://www.scanalert.com logo, but scan alert doesn't list them as one of their customers... Very suspicious.

The listing clearly says "Front Only".
