Last time i checked it was around $120 a pair but that was a little while ago. Depending on the car they may or may not be captive when installed, but thats nothing that shortened shocks won't fix.

not many shocks will keep a spring captive after a 50mm drop.if you need shortning try autolign they do a pair for around $100 including gst.since escort is live rear axel it would be more cost effective to find rear shock which keep your spring captive out of a different car. e.g when you drop a starlet rear on king superlows a mk2 escort rear shock will keep them captive.
