Question Prokit part # mixup? Did I get sent the wrong springs?

I desperately need your help guys. I recently ordered a set of Eibach Prokits for my 93 Sentra SE 2Dr. According to the Eibach site, I need part # 6316.140. I received my springs today, but when I opened the box, this is what I found:

-> 2 springs with markings 6316.101, and a second number of 33450 on the same coils.

-> the other 2 springs had markings of 6324.002, and a second number of 34306A on the same coils.

I hate to state the obvious, but I think I just got sent the wrong sh**. Wouldn't both the front and rear springs have the number 6316.140 printed on them? Until I get some kind of confirmation about these numbers and what car they should belong to, I can't exactly send them back. What's shady is that when I went to open the box, apparently the factory Eibach packaging (staples) had been removed. Cheap packaging tape was used to reseal the box. Of course, the outside Eibach print says Part Number 6316.140, but since the box had been opened and resealed who knows.

Now, stupid me tried to save a buck so I purchased the springs from an eBay seller that supposedly had Prokits for various makes/models. (..or could source the parts. Either way, this should have been a sign to stay away.) Cost was $194 shipped. I'm afraid that if I send them back I'll either A - get screwed out of $194, B - get screwed for having to pay shipping for replacements and/or sending these back, or C - wait another month for these a$$ clowns to send me the right springs. After nearly a month of waiting, almost 24 EMAILS!!!, and thinking I got screwed, I'm relieved to have received SOMETHING even if they are the wrong parts. What should I do now? Can anyone confirm these part numbers?

And yes, I will gladly post the name of the eBay seller I am leary of once everything is cleared - whether positive or negative feedback. Chances are, if these springs belong to another car, I'll just sell them myself instead of taking chances with this lousy eBay/online seller.

THANKS in advance for ANY help you can offer.
