Default Should I buy rotor's off ebay?

I was wondering if i should get rotors off ebay, they have a bunch of brands from various companies, i'm not looking for performance but rather something that is at least as good as oem if better then thats just a plus.

Thanks.

I've heard alot of bad stuff about ebay and experience it myself. I once bought a game off ebay and the seller said it eas brand new never opened before. I used the "buy it now" icon and didn't even bother bidding on the game. 1 week later my game came in and their it was "USED!!" It didn't even have it's original case, but a regular clear cd case with some scrtches on the game. I was pissed, but since the game is so hard to find, I let it slide.

My friend also ordered a spoiler off ebay once and it said the spoiler was 52 inch in length. When it came in, it was only 48 inch. He called back and they were rude and gave him a hard time.

Just be careful, some people are liars, etc. on ebay. I've also heard the best pay method is paypal. If the seller lies to you, then paypal will give you a full refund and go after the seller. Best of luck!!

I bought a set of cross drilled/slotted brembo rotors and they're awesome.
