Default does this seem good for the price?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FRONT-WHEEL-BEARING-HUB-1999-2000-2001-CHEVY-CAMARO-NEW-/350384262746?hash=item5194878e5a



I need the driver side only for now, but prices around me are around 220 for just one, this guy has it for 65, think it will last me?

That's interesting. "United", the brand name they give, is a big bearing reseller company. So that bearing hub could come from anywhere, foreign country or not. But checking the part number "513090", comes up as a Timken bearing (which is a good name and I've used their hubs on a few vehicles before). Does that mean it's a private labeled Timken bearing? Maybe, but I would ask the seller first.

Just be cautious if you can't find out for sure who manufactures that hub, because of this: http://www.unitedbearingcompany.com/...Imposters.html
If the seller can't verify whose make it is, it could be a cheap piece of crap for all you know, and turn to toast on you prematurely. Then I would go with the Timken.
