its a joke, they feel like brand new stock forks. made me laugh when i felt them in a shop. i would expect a super solid fork for that money. the bombshells/r.b. should be nicer if you want that style. the sp5's are good too.
not all of them have slop, that might have just been on the bike you felt them on. I have ridden a few pairs of them on different ppls bikes and they were nice, with NO slop
