I bought the one on amazon.com from Opteka. They are fantastic. It does not feel cheap. I recommend it! 5 stars!

Buy from ebay its the same all those brands are the same China Made !
Bower Opteka Even Vivitar has same products!
eBay easier chaper they all work alike!
I have a 'no brand' Grip for my 7D which is the same as Flashpoint that sells @ B&H

Check out the Sponsors section of this forum. One of them is Link Delight, they sell off-brand accessories like grips. I bought a grip from them and it works great.

*edit*
Actually, it looks like their sponsorship deal ran out as of July, I don't see them in the sponsor's section. Still worth checking out though.

I bought one from Link Delight. Shipping took 2 weeks but its understandable because it's shipped from China. Other wise, it does what I expected them to.

Looks like they have nicer grips for Canons than my nikon
