I'm really getting tired of saying this, ebay is a market place, they have no connection to the items you buy. If you had problems with a certain brand, bash the brand if you must, but dont bash ebay.
Furthermore its almost never a good idea to use the HG out of a gasket kit. People buy them for the other gaskets, which is what he is asking about. These kits are usually a lifesafer, the only ones you dont want to use are the HG, EGR cooler, exhaust manifold, and sometimes the oil pan (just use FIPG).

Ebay does not make anything...there is no such thing as ebay intercoolers or ebay headgaskets or ebay "enter you choice of product here" anything.
