The reserve hasn't even been met. Many stock seats aren't even good enough for cars. I'd stick with an FIA approved seat as well.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

I have a set in my car because i got them for $70 (locally, no shipping). I'd stick with stock seats if i could've found them for a little more (mine were trashed)
Overall, they're decent, not the crap i expected from reading threads like these.
Mine aren't the exact same ones, but i'm sure they're probably similar...mine recline. Mounting is a PITA, i ended up using angle iron and spending around $50 on it. They're pretty hard and uncomfortable, mine are breaking in and getting a little better.
The side bolster while not wearing down on the outside is breaking down on the inside probably from my wallet, nothing i noticed until i leaned in my car, put my hand there and noticed it was a little flat and i could feel the inner frame.

Seats are more of a safety item than a comfort item. Skimp with seats as you would with a cage or any other safety device - at your own risk. I'd love to see crash/safety statistics with some of these knockoff seats, as I'm sure there would be some interesting results.
Not bashing knock-offs, I'd just stay away from the "produce it as cheap as possible" mentality for certain items.
