From his post:
"I am selling the item for $1 with No Reserve! Buy it now for $1100 shipped! email me at
imdlaww@yahoo.com"
Ummmm. $1,100 for both sets is not a bad price. It will most likely get very close to that price by tomorrow.
Keep in mind, a set of Brembo rotors sell for around $390 front and $370 rear. There are other (cheaper) alternatives as well.

yeah, I noticed that there weren't any rotors in the pix he posted...

Still, even with having to get rotors, that would be a complete brembo swap for less than $2k. That is still a good deal.

You can find STi rotors for sale on Nasioc for cheap all the time

they're up to $405 with 32 hours left on the auction. they're near my breaking point, but I'll keep an eye on them.
EDIT: now up to $510 (+55 shipping) with 13.5 hours left on auction. still a good deal but now out of my price range.

Ummmm, the $2k was for the FULL set of brembos, both fronts and rears.
$1,600 is only going to get you a set of front stoptechs only! Not that you really need the backs.
