My DF's were like $145.00 shipped, thanks to some of the fellow ScionLifers who helped me find that price.
I just installed them today & I can't say I have a complaint about them. The xB is low as h*ll and the ride is quality considering a 2" drop. I love em :D
I have also heard good things about Goldlines as well !

What color is your ride? I ordered Goldlines because I have a Camo box. White would have looked funny. I think the quality and ride is about the same.

i got the goldlines i like the yellow color and the price was nice too like $148 not to mention the guarantee not to sag and the life time warranty you can't go wrong with goldlines,with 18" wheels and goldlines the xb looks a whole lot less boxy,i also notice that the ride is a lot better that the stock spring love my goldlines...

I've heard a lot of good things about Goldline and also the df210. Both seem to be great springs, I've heard that Goldlines are a little bit higher in the front then the rear. Most scion owners I've talked to with Goldlines cut the front to drop it more. According to Goldlines website it states 2" drop. Tanabe's website states 2.2" in the front and 2" in the back.
From Tanabe's website it also states about no sag:

Load Setting
We subject a larger load to our coil springs over the specified maximum safety load according to car models. By fully loading the spring 100%, we are able to fully determine whether the spring has been given sufficient tolerance. After this process, we paint the coil springs. Highly resistant to sag and deformity, high-quality and superior performing coil springs are born.
Used exclusively by several of the top winning JGTC and Formula Nippon race teams, the durability and strength are continuously tested on the track and proven as race winners. Whether your suspension tuning desires are for street or race, we have applications that meet and exceed.

Also when someone gives a lifetime warrenty for their product they know their product won't last. It's just their way of getting business.
