Default Difference of Type R shift *****

How much different is an OEM type r **** compared to an Ebay replica Type R shift ****? Weight?, size?, detail? Is it worth buying an OEM one?

seeing as it is a cosmetic item, which do you think looks better? Which would you like more?

only difference is that the type R ***** are weighted to .40 Grams making shifts supposedly smoother. If it was me i would just get whatever one you want, i sswitched from an ebay **** to a skunk 2 weighted **** and it wasn't much difference shifting.
