Quite. Only need to look at modern 'Lucas' products like replacement
distributors. Look much the same until you open them up. But then they
are cheap, and you generally get what you pay for.


Unfortunately many poor quality Chinese copies are being sold at near
genuine item prices, particularly by online sellers. I'm fed up with
trying to buy decent quality by paying a higher price only to receive
crap!

The aforementioned Lucas copies tend to be cheaper than having an original
overhauled properly - hence selling well. But there are lots and lots of
complaints about them. Failing totally, or not working perfectly. Making
me wonder who buys them and are happy with the purchase.
