Completely agree with this. I would also add buy cheap if it's a frequent replacement. Front suspension bushes on Fiestas and Pumas for example, or Ka door handles. The OE / expensive stuff doesn't last any longer, or work any better than the cheap stuff, and in two years you'll be doing the job all over again anyway.
I'm putting a new clutch in the Focus tomorrow and could have got some unbranded tat off eBay for as little £75. Spent almost double that on a Sachs kit as it's going to take me the entire day to do the job.
