Ebay soft tail touring bag brackets

Does any one have any experience with the soft tail touring bag brackets offered on ebay. I see there are some as low as $150.00 or should I stick with the cycle vision.

I've had no-name brand stuff bought from ebay fall apart on the motorway due to metal fatigue. Unless it's both a recognised quality brand, and definitely genuine, I'd steer clear of stuff that's anything other than cosmetic. YMMV

I went with Cycle Visions and never give them a second thought.

I have had good luck with Viking Bags Quick disconnect system. It really makes it easy to check rear tire air pressure and take the bags off if you are staying in a motel overnight.
