Whoever you think sells them at +250% are using the real thing. Mind you mate, some consumers are able to differentiate the various metals and manufacturing processes. Until today, nobody have complained officially of anyone selling cheap alloys at +250%

Not affiliated or anything.... it just worth what it's worth brotha
All in all my shifter has been given me no problems yet, but I will keep the board posted if issues arise. Unless you are the hulk on steroids shifting like mad escaping the police, there should be no humanly way possible to bend/break the metal even with metal fatigue set it. The user that bought the ebay shifter may of bought it from a different seller, so we can't label all lower priced ebay products as inferior. But, like said- I will keep the board posted.
