Calling Cheapie and anyone else with an opinion?

Anyone have any thoughts on these. I found them on ebay and thought for the price it might be worth the chance since the cheapest stand I can find otherwise is about 100.00 and these are about 50 with shipping. thoughts?

Those two look okay. Depending on the amount of space you have I would definitely recommend one that collapses similar to the second one. This is the one I have:

I really like the base of this one (the tripod is very stable), it's very easy to setup and also takes up virtually no space when collapsed. It's a little bit more expensive but there are some other stands made by Ultimate Support that are less expensive. I really like the quick release.
