If so, what are your opinions of them? Are they bright? Do they look great, good quality, etc. etc.?

so which one did you buy? the $20 or $50 ones? The can't possibly be the same manufacturer and quality.

lol. I'm tired of people on here thinking that just because something doesn't cost hundreds of dollars that it's automatically garbage. "Oh, it's from eBay. It MUST be horrible, even though I have never purchased them, nor have I ever seen them in real life." Go ahead, stick your hand deeper into your pocket and pay more for something just so you can feel better about your penis size. Jump on the bandwagon!

Just because it costs less, doesn't mean it's bad.

They are both the same exact china kit, one of the sellers is just making WAY more profit.

+1 I have been buying stuff from ebay for years and have had 99.9% good products.

As long as you take the time to really look at what your buying, you will usually wind up with exactly what you were looking for.
