the only problem is they are potentially junk. How good or bad they are will take someone to buy, test and document them. I suspect you won't find too many people on the forums running them

there are a ton of affordable rotor options out there. You don't have to drop $1500 on rotors to get good ones, you can spend far less. Brembo, DBA, Stoptech all offer quality rotors at very affordable pricing, and have been proven to work in track and street conditions. Brakes being a safety item, it's not an area I'd try to skimp on

If and when i ever look for car parts on eBay, if I see a thousand auctions of the same item, its usually a knock-off, overly mass-produced and the quality of the product sucks. In this case, being an integral part of a car, you should spend the money for quality.

I bought my front and rear rotors from "irotors" for $177 or so shipped to my house. I was wondering how well they would hold up after reading everything on here, but I can say that after 4000 miles, they are good rotors, and I will be buying from them again. You get what you pay for? Most of the time yes, but I believe that this is a startup business, and they had a good deal going to get customers. Those same rotors are going at $349 OBO plus shipping now. I have taken the car out to the twisties and beat on them a few times, and no cracking from the outermost holes. I only have ceramic pads, nothing special, but it stops better now than it ever did.
