I paid a lot more than that for mine and love them. If anyone in here has been wanting a set, it's still a lot of dough but better than full price.

Yeah. They sued a lot of small shops for using the word backcountry. Which is a regular word. There are backcountry skis like there are mountain bikes, a lot of shops have been using the word because it applied to what they sold, having nothing to do with Backcountry.com. Once there was a backlash, the CEO fired their lawyers and said they had no idea what was going on, which isn't believable at all.
If I was in the market for these specific wheels, I wouldn't let that stop me from saving $1k. But to each his or her own.
