Door weatherstrip choices on ebay

anyone have any comments on the A1 auto door weatherstripping $61, or AM auto parts $49, that are always on ebay?

I need new door and window seals / channnels all round , Black Dragon better?

If I remember correctly there is only one type that is constantly on ebay.

Also do a search with the term weatherstrip, leave the wording of ebay out because it will give you everything that has been posted from ebay. :-)

The A1s are fine, I've had a set for three or four years now and have transferred them to three different cars - just don't use the contact adhesive as recommended, they are easier to remove and they fit so snuggly they really don't need the glue.

But ourseven brings up an interesting question, are the ones that have more recently showed up on ebay for $12 less of equal quality?

Anybody tried the AM seals?

I just put a set from A1 on my daily driver, it has a 15 year warranty... kinda makes me feel confident that it wount break up. also it seems to be a better quality foam rubber then alot of newer cars (not all)i have seen.
