Well, recently my MacBook MagSafe screwed up, so I do not use my computer since 2 months ago (I know I know, its sad :( ) but anyway. I saw on eBay some "genuine" MagSafe chargers, well, I think are some sort of refurbished devices but I'm not so shure about it. Here's the link. Have anyone tried this MagSafes? I mean, they're not fake or something like that?

But there's another option called DealExtreme. They sell all kind of gadgets and electronic curiosities, mostly accesories, some of them "from" Apple. I say "from" because they sell this things in a very low price, close the 70% or more off. I heard that they got this amazing prices because they made their products from the same Apple factory in China, but without quality control, packaging, import taxes, Apple logo... etc.
Have anyone ever buyed on DealExtreme?, Their products are good?

Hope u answer me soon, because I want to order my charger tonight on eBay.
 
My opinion of the "genuine" products on eBay was summed up quite succinctly by Shakespeare himself:

Hamlet:
Madam, how like you this eBay product?

Queen:
The manufacturer doth protest too much, methinks.
