Default New carbs on fleabay, good or bad?

Celtric and Zoom Zoom carbs are for sale for about $150. Has anyone ever bought any of these, and have any feedback? This is for a 2000 Yamaha Kodiak 400 4x4 ultramatic. Thank you.

Did a quick Google search, they are Chinese reproductions of the factory carbs, so NOT a Mikuni, even though it looks exactly like the factory one. Some of the reviews complained of having to reset needles, rejet ,etc. to get them to run good. Others have had no problems. As long as the carbs can use Mikuni jets and needles and such, might be a cheap way to get a new carb on your quad. Contact the seller and ask some questions, and do a web search on the company, look for reviews of the products and any problems with carb or customer service.

Thank you. I know it is a risk, maybe I can find some reviews somewhere.
