Softbox query...is this any good?

Ebay Performance: Both diffusers will be extremely thin and will do a poor job of diffusing the light, you'll get hotshpots. The inner diffuser is very close to the outer one and so does a poor job of diffusion.
The outer diffuser goes over the front of the softbox and the light goes everywhere. Unless it's facing almost directly away from the camera it will create flare.

Lencarta performance: Designed by photographers, so much better diffusion qualities, the inner diffuser is much further back. The front is recessed, this allows a honeycomb to be fitted and also prevents or minimises flare. The deeply recessed front also allows the light to be feathered.

Build quality: Easy to compare them side by side, but difficult to describe.
