yea, camber kits are expensive...
sometimes even more than the springs themselves

All camber kits work as long as they are the right ones for the application your buying them for.

the question should be "how long will the e-bay camber kits last?"

E-bay is a place filled with many bargains and many counterfiet parts.

I'm going to say that if you buy a brand name set of camber kits that they will last a long time a no name company is usually also good but they dont have a track record of users to help you make a decision on buying or useing their products.
Hope this helps out on your question YuemMaiMai.

I'll support wheelbroker 100% on that... Stick with a reliable name or do a LOT of research on an off brand product before you buy it...

how about the correct degree/angle of adjustment?
all camber kits dont adjust the same angle, right?
how would i know what i need to adjust, or will the shop just figure all that out for me?

the shop should adjust that as part of an alignment, most camber kits will give you +/- 3 degrees which should be more than enough

if you dropped it 2 inches the adjusted camber then dropped it another inch to 3 then yes your camber would be off again.... however, they say you can safely run +/- 1 degree of camber so as long as it didn't go past that threshold you'd be okay... but most likely yes you would need it adjusted again
