Anyone have experience with a Memory Foam Mattress from E-Bay? Or should I get Sleep Innovations from Amazon?

I was looking at Ebay and there are a lot of high volume memory foam mattress sellers from Ebay with almost all positive feedback.  Anyone have any experiences with any of them?

I was going to buy the Sleep Innovations 10" from Amazon based on the reviews, but was wondering if any of the Ebay mattress would be better.  They seem to have better specs.

Thanks for the reply.  I ended up going to Foam Mattress Discounts (foammattressdiscounts.com, also e-bay seller foammattressdiscountscom).  I got the 8" (3" 5lb memory foam).

I decided on this one because of the stellar reviews on E-bay.

Most of the people here are fans of latex.  Considering the price, if it lasts 5 years, you have the equivalent of 25 years on a $2k Tempurpedic!  Definitely looks like it is worth a try.  I'm curious why you selected the 8" rather than the 10", which seems to have some air flow properties which may help sleep cooler than the 8".  Memory foam can often sleep hot.  It would be nice to hear how you like the mattress when you receive it as well as a followup in 6-12 months.

The 5 lbs memory foam should be good quality and firm, especially over a "firm" 5" poly foam base.  Reasonable price for either the 8 or 10 inch, I'm more of a latex guy myself (hopefully that doesn't sound kinky) but we considered several of the memory foam mattresses at Sams Club for our RV.  We like to camp in the mountains and at 9,000 feet a little extra warmth is a good thing.
