That's a pretty nice fork for $45. Salt Plus parts are basically like Wethepeople. But the race doesn't look like it's the original one for some reason.. And the compression bolt is threaded which is super nice already. And forks with threaded compression bolts aren't always super cheap and all. And trust me, I ran Kink Strife forks for almost 2 years before my Odyssey Directors and the only con was the weight, which wasn't even all that bad.

Not bent, they're roughly $66 new in USD, so $45 isn't that bad of a deal but try & get him to go lower, like $30ish
