$800 is good price for the rears depending upon their shape and the shipping cost to get them to you. I had a set of Marino's 17" and thought the quality was very good. One word of caution: If your buying them thinking you can pick up a pair of fronts, you may want to give Marino a call first and confirm that a pair of fronts (only) are available separately.

They're pricey parts so it's difficult to keep much stock. Likewise, for the same reason it's difficult to serparate sets and if you didn't buy them from Marino, he may have a hard time breaking a set to accomodate you.

There were a few threads a while back complaining about availability of single rim replacment of damaged rims. I never confirmed those stories myself so would say they are about as reliable as any other internet stuff. However, it may be worth contacting Marino directly to ensure that you can complete the set (if that is your game plan) before you buy. It may merely be a matter of waiting for the next run, or it may be no problem.
