Question eBay tonneau covers

Hai negroes!

I'm chasing some first-hand experience or input into those aftermarket tonneau covers that are for sale on ebay. Like this one:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-Suits-XD...3%3A1|294%3A50

I need a tonneau cover for my bunkie and whilst the cheap-ish price of the ebay ones looks ok, I'm not sure about their fit and quality.

Has anyone tried these types of covers? I don't want to spend like $250 on one so buying genuine is out of the question.

If Geniune is only $250 it would be no contest.

Go genuine, the eBay one may only last one Summer/Winter then your up for another $110 -plus freight-!

And there's no mention of warranty there either.

As I said, it is for a bunkie. The car only cost me $350 so I'd be reluctant to pay OEM $$$...
