Beware: Faulty Stainless Clutch Lines

Purchased a stainless clutch line off ebay from this seller:

http://myworld.ebay.ca/eliteparts20006

After 300km of usage on a 6 puck RPS clutch, it started to leak into the rubber coating, by 600km the whole line was full.

I've emailed Eliteparts and no reply, and after seeing their feedback, it sounds like I'm not the first one to get ignored. I was stupid and left good feedback without using the product too, d'oh. Lesson learned, not to cheap out on something like this...

I took some a couple pics, beside my new oem DOT approved line, you can see the differences in the quality of crimps...

That's why I always stick with a name I trust. I use racing beat's SS clutch line. I never have any problems.
