Ebay Strut Bars

I'm just wondering if anyone has purchased their front strut bar off of ebay. I see a lot of Strut Bars claiming to be of good quality there however, the price is crazy low ($10-$15)! I'm just wondering if anyone here can vouch for any of these bars or if I should pay $70 for the CustomMaxima bar?...

Thanks.

From what I've read, fstb on ebay are like any other strut bars that you can buy.

From experience, I've had to send mine back because I could not get the bar to readjust to my car's length. I ended up sending it back about 6 months ago. And I haven't heard back from them. I really think that it got lost in the mail.

I have the ebay strut bar that I bought from the seller, ReVotec. They were good, and I have been enjoying it for quite some time.
I think it still looks good, but it may not look quite as good as the Stillen one. I don't know.
