Default ebay oil catch cans, worth it?

Some of the catch cans are around $100+, while the ebay ones you can get close to 30-40 shipped... I've heard some say that the ebay ones are as good as the greddy, etc types... WHat's your take on this? Unfortunately, the pics from the ebay products dont show the internals of their catch can, so i dont even know if there's some sort of baffling in there.. lol Any1 ever use the ones from ebay>?

sorry about the noob question but....what exactly does an oil catch can do? does it increase the oil capacity of the OEM pan?

I would imagine the ebay ones are just as good. After all, it's just a can with some hoses running off of it. Nothing too complicated.
