Three front wheel bearings in 45,000km?

That is a good price ,I just paid 70 for 1 at rare spares

After having 3 cheapies fail quickly I'd be avoiding eBay and the mechanic who fitted the last 3 and choosing a quality set from a walk in shop.
Maybe the mechanic has been fitting parts from eBay...

Yeah, you'd like to think that rare spares deal with quality items but fact is everyone is under price pressures. Time will tell how good an item it is. I know you're not having a good run and you'd think no matter how poor a quality they are, should last longer than what you're getting. Hopefully you can get to the bottom of the problem. I know when I changed mine I found my original is a rebuildable one compared to replacement which is sealed.
