I bought a Norgon ambi catch about 4 months ago ($75), and it works great. I was browsing Ebay the other day and found what looks to be a knock off for $33, so I thought I would give it a try.

It's almost imperceptible to distinguish the Norgon from the Ebay one. A couple of things I found is that the Norgon one has the Patent number on it, the metal work is a little smoother, and the finish is just a tad darker. I tried the Ebay one and it worked just as good as Norgon's. Personally I think Norgon's price of $75-$90 is a bit steep for what you get. $33 seems a lot more reasonable.

Oh, and it's not my listing, nor do I know the seller on Ebay

I had a Norgon for a while and I think you're exactly right: nice, but not worth more than $50.

This could be a nice alternative.
 
As long as you aren't concerned with someone knocking off the patent. As a business owner, that would bother me.

Someone on another site checked the patent # and said it was filed in 1995. So it'spossible the patent has expired
