Default Anyone bought this MAF?

Not that I need one, just shopping around on Ebay and came across this, seems a little too good to be true.

LAND/RANGE ROVER MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR METER MAF 95-99 | eBay

No I don't need it, I just ran across it. I'm seeing a bunch of non-OEM parts that claim they're better than. Water pump, MAF, Starter etc, just wondering is all.

unless the vehicle mysteriously stalls when hot, then most codes dealing with air leaks are just that, air leaks from lines or intake gaskets. D1 maf are not as prone to breakdown as D2.

Land Rover original parts are some of the best out there, they last forever if you do the proper maintenance on them.
My original alternator lasted over 160,000 miles before the bearings went out on it, and it still worked.
I am always leery of super cheap parts, however sometimes you just need to take a chance and go for it.

Maybe when it comes to an off brand alternator even MAF I'll risk, (more than likely not) but when it comes to water pump or other critical cooling or steering component, brakes etc, I'm not going to be the one to have to post here my mistake
