I've had better luck with Enco/MSC than ebay. All of Asia's
production
rejects seem to go through Ebay.

I've seen that with electronic components from Amazon too. An order of
"75V" gas discharge tubes tested either under 70V or over 80V and
"50V" Schottky diodes began leaking beyond spec at 48-49V. They are
still useable, just be careful if you don't have or know how to build
the equipment to measure device parameters.
