EDIT: They more than quadrupled shipping within 12 hours after I bought, so if you snoozed, you losed on this deal.
Gotcha. They're NOT a dollar.
They're less. $3.94 for 4 servos shipped from Hong Kong.

Bought some last month, convinced it was a mistake and they would cancel the transaction. But they delivered, and I stocked up. Still thought it was a mistake, never to be repeated, but here they are again. I just bought 16 more. Watch for me on "Hoarders", Ken...
These are standard HK quality generic 9-gram servos, same as I have gotten from HK previously. Surely not the best for mission-critical applications, but at less than a buck each, it's worth stashing some away for a future mini arm or hexapod project. Note that these aren't candidates for the continuous rotation mod, since the output gear is just a sector.
Be sure to get at least one of these cheap & handy servo testers, too: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Multi-Servo-Tester-3CH-ESC-Speed-Controler-Meter-Check-/200658361086?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2eb82b9afe

Pounce immediately when I post, or all is lost!
Another fair deal is this 4-pack of standard-size Futaba S3003 clones ($4.19 each) at http://www.ebay.com/itm/4x-Futaba-S3003-Servo-Fit-hpi-rc10-tc3-xxxt-Plane-NIB-/290602756096?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43a9462800
