Default Are these all the same Z06 shocks?

I'm in the market to purchase a set of Z06 shocks and I'm stun at the different Z06 shock prices. Here's what I mean.
Rockauto Front shock" #10313647" $60.00, Rear shock "10318361"$60.00
shipping $15.00 total of $255.00
Cultrag a set of Z06 shocks wants $306 + 42 for shipping total $342.00
GM partshouse are asking $277 +$17 for shipping total $294.00
Question: are these all the same Z06 shocks? Why is rockauto price so much cheaper?
thanks for your comments.

Maybe.Should be if they are the same part numbers. Have you thought about getting a set of Bilstein Sports?

I buy filters, brakes and such from Rock Auto for my daily drivers and have never been disappointed.

Rock Auto, I'm guessing, just has low overhead and huge volume. I'd suggest Doug Rippie Motorsports valved Bilsteins. They are pretty much what every C6Z owner gets, including me, unless they're going to coil-overs. They are Bilsteins that DRM custom valves.

Those prices are actually closer to eachother than many auto parts I have seen....nothing unusual. Example would be the ACDelco TPMS sensors...anywhere from $40 to $80 each depending on the seller. I have to say that I wouldn't buy any of the oem shocks though...much better options out there...Bilstein, Koni etc.

When you purchase Z06 shocks, this is what you should receive:
10313647*2, 25819268*2 (10318361 --> 25819268) we have for sale at $302.16 free shipping

I am very pleased with the set on my Grand Sport.
