Default Are ebay cartridges any good?

Anyone ever had any luck with these ebay cartridges? Would this eliminate a shaft play problem with the current turbo I have?

I wouldnt try it since they have to be balanced. just send it to cheapturbo.com and they will rebuilt it for $250.

You could also have your cartridge bored out and use an oversize bearing
