Bought new radiator Through EBay.!!!

ok my radiator started leaking through the top and now im forced to replace it.
Well i was looking on ebay and i found this radiator that was only about 57 dollars. I have been looking around and everyone wants about 120 or so. I was happy and i quickly ordered it with no hesitation knowing that it would fit my 97 infiniti i30. Now i just need some feedback. Tell me what u guys think about this particular radiator heres the link.

You really can't give much input on Ebay generics like these. So long as it's functional your good. With ebay deals, sometimes you wont' know that until you see and install it. I think you'll be fine though.

I like your backwards thinking.

Order product, then ask for feedback/reviews

lol Well let's hope fitment won't be a issue since I'm not really a mechanical guy. I'll still be worried because maybe about 2 months ago i bought some fog's and corner's for my i30 from a org member and fitment was a issue. And still to this day they have a gap on top about 1 inch. That bothers me but ohh well. I will have pic's up as soon as i recieve the item. Wish me luck

I picked one up on Ebay about a yr. ago.

Installation was a breeze, go slow and you'll have it in w\in an hour. Unless you're REALLY inept. 2 hrs, in that case.

It was $75 for me tho'.
And a wk. waiting (East Coast).

But so far -- so good-- money well spent.

I think (we) you'll be OK for a few yrs., at least.

2 years ago I got one for my 91 accord... back then I paid $65 but installation was really easy fitment was great... 50,000 + miles latter when I sold the car the radiator still looked like new and not even a drop form the coolant/transmission lines... I would buy another one in a second if I had to...
