Default Pre-Converted PS from Ebay, Etc?

I have a 12v 30a converted computer power supply (I did not convert it) that is getting old and flaky. I'd like to replace it with a converted server power supply. I do not want to do the conversion myself, so I am looking at pre-converted plug-and-play units from ebay and other online sources.

Has anyone used any of the following sellers and give me feedback on the quality of the conversion?

ebay - StrickProducts ("Juice Box" Power Supplies)
ebay - PsychotiChica
ebay - LipoConnectionSolutions
ebay - Chapai23Jason
ebay - FSCII
ebay - RadioConTronics

Feather Merchant RC

I have had pretty good luck on ebay over the years, but am still always leery of the potential for buying junk. I appreciate any positive experience you may have had with one of these sellers. Or, feel free to suggest someone I have overlooked (does not have to be on ebay) with availability in the US.

Thanks!

This....mines still going strong after 3/4 years. Might have to try one of his 69A PS for next time.

Default Thanks! Feather Merchant RC it is!!

Thanks to both Phildoggg and Yosh70 for taking the time to answer. The prices he is charging on Feather Merchant RC is as good or better than most of the ebay vendors. I get the impression that he is an RC enthusiast, too, so that's a bonus! I am placing an order now. I'm getting the 69Amp version. It's only $5 more than the basic version. That's a no brainer! I'm pretty good at those.
