I called Eibach today and received some good news. The springs in my "new" opened box buy are the correct part numbers. Although I find it odd that the part #'s on the springs have no true sequential or numerical relevance to the kit part #, the numbers on my springs match Eibach's part # database nonetheless. So here you have it:

1991-1994 B13 Sentra SE/XE/GXE & SE-R 2DR/4DR

Eibach Pro-Kit Part # 6316.140 (4 Spring Set)

Front Spring Part #'s 6316.101
Rear Spring Part #'s 6324.002

After this experience the best answer is to always contact the manufacturer first before jumping to conclusions regarding the vendor. I certainly dislike shady business and poor customer service. I may have simply been a victim of the latter. (In this case, a seller/vendor on eBay.) So I suppose, with good reason, I got upset over having to wait over a month to settle an eBay transaction. All things relative to car part shopping, this isn't all THAT bad of a wait. Not knowing who has your money or whether you'll hear from them again is a different story.

I would have loved to install the complete suspension this weekend, but oh well. I suppose that's what patience is all about.

I certainly hope this serves as good SEARCH button material for anyone interested in knowing the part #'s in a ProKit spring set. But we already know they won't use the SEARCH button...

I will certainly withdraw any enormous amount of negative criticism towards e3racing.com (eBay ID e3racing), but if you feel like sending tons of Email with uncertainty or if you just enjoy waiting over a month to get some springs, check them out.
