Might be of interest to some of you.
The price appears reasonable for SKF and he's open to offers.

For those who don't know, everyone will prefer the rubber sealed ones if you're going offroad, to keep the grit out.
If you're not going offroad, I've read that metal shielded ones are a little freer than rubber shielded ones, if you're after outright speed.

I get mine from JE Spares for 84p each.

OK they are not SKF but I haven't had any problems with them and they are almost half the cost of the ebay items. The service from JE Spares is excellent too

To be honest, I've bought the 'cheap' ones without problems before, but when I saw this, I remembered looking at SKF pricing before and thinking them damned expensive, then working this one out and realising that IF it is the real thing - it is as I've got mine!! - then it's a damned good deal.
If you feed the same reference in and look on Fleabay or generally through Google, they're quite a lot more expensive.
