Chinese "OEM" rear racks

Anyone have any luck with the Chinese knockoff OEM rack? Like this one on Ebay -

I have a 2013 and really want a rear rack.

Picked up an OEM rack via the for sale section for a pretty good price. Over half off. I'd ask if anybody has one to sell before I'd go the eBay route.

I'd love to get a rack for my Hepco Becker topbox, but it's just absurd what these things cost new! ($270 plus shipping?)
I've even considered making one out of copper or steel pipe. Yes...it would look absolutely awful, but I probably would only use it once or twice a year.

I remember reading a post where someone bought a Chinese rack but I can't find it in search results.

Found HB for $258, to me price is fair for German made product. I purchased a Shad rack for $125.00

Still hoping to hear from anyone who has put one of the Chinese knockoff racks on before I pull the trigger. Please do not reply unless you have installed one, or know the thread topic on this forum or another forum of someone who has installed one, or know of a genuine OEM rack at the same price as the Chinese knockoffs. Thank you.

I believe I paid ~$220 for my oem rack from a bike shop in Texas after a long search of the internet...

My 2013 came with a rack almost identical to this already installed. I've never taken full advantage of it--the most luggage I've travelled with is a backpack so far. Still, the quality seems good.
