Need a new set for one of the fleet, I've had a search and found reference to them being OEM, and some people fitting Monroe dampers, but are they any good for springs?
They seem very reasonably priced if so...

Springs are cheap. Monroe are an established brand. However, beware if replacing OEM springs 'like for like', OEMs often produce several different part numbers for springs which increment in height and rate for cars with or without automatic gearbox, sunroof, A/C etc etc. Make sure you get the right ones. Generic aftermarket springs are unlikely to be so tailored.
