Possible ignition switch issue

I wanted to confirm/get opinions on something. I went to start my 04 Boxster on Sunday and it wouldn't start. The key turned freely, dash lit up and the radio turned on but the starter didn't engage -- no clicking or any noise. From what I read this appears to be a ignition switch issue

1. Does that sound right?
2. I was shopping in Pelican and they have a couple choices. The Porsche branded for $80 and OEM brand for $30. I'm confused in the OEM brand is clever naming or actually OEM. What ignition switch do people usually buy?


** of course I tried to start the car last night and couldn't reproduce the issue.
