eBay has them for cheap but I don't think they are original

Safe to buy from eBay?

Don't mind of not genuine, as long as it works properly

You guys happy with S - Pen?

I broke mine trying to adjust the proximity switch cos S - Pen was not very responsive, had to press very hard for it to register

Prefer a local shop where I can buy (good price) and try same time to make sure it works purposely?
 
He said "reasonable price", not complete and utter rip-off :p

Hahaha....

Missed that one.

But I would prefer original spen from reputable place above one from the guy from the corner store with a "sharp" point that scratches my screen the I have to fork out 10x the amount.

Rather by the original spen and safe yourself more headaches.

I bought a couple of things on eBay with no problems. I don't know about the S-Pen though. If the original ones were not so expensive it might have been an option.

If I may be honest I don't think the S-Pens you can buy for cheap on eBay will function like a normal one. It was just a suggestion but if you use your S-Pen a lot this may not be an option for you

Mine was too but then I changed the tip with the ones they included in the box. Mine wasn't responsive at all but now it woks flawlessly.

Tried 3 different tips, didn't make a difference, hence fiddling with proximity switch..
 
Quick product review for Sport Armband for Samsung Galaxy Note 2, Note 3 and all other Big size smartphones on Bid Or Buy.

* Clear screen protector allows easy navigation. Plastic is capacitive, so you can use the phone while it's on your arm.
* Adjustable VELCRO closure fits many arm sizes. It sits quite comfortably on my forearm and doesn't bounce around.
* It has a small slot for a key. It's not big enough for my car keys though, so I had to go with a second option. Mr. Price Sport has cheap wrist pouches for R35.
* Slim, lightweight, and stretchable neoprene material. It tends to be damp when I'm finished jogging, so I don't think it would be a solution for jogging in the rain.
* The light sensor is covered, so I need to turn off the automatic light setting (when you pull down the notification center).
* The bottom buttons are also covered, so I need to physically push up the device/pull down the cover to get access to them.
* It's a tight fit, but I can still get my driver's license and another card or 3 behind the phone whilst in the cover.
* I find it easier to slide it off my arm, interact with the phone (e.g. checking my run distance/time) and then just slide my arm back in. (I suspect that any phone size would have the same problem).
