Toyota: WINDOW MOTOR AND REGULATOR, toyota camry, doctorautoparts

Question
I have a 1996 toyota camry LE.  Drivers side window is VERY slow in opening and closing.  Not making any noise - just slow.  I suspect it is the motor that raises and lowers the window.  Toyota will sell me replacement part of motor and regulator for $351.  Can not just get motor.  I have seen just the motor on EBAY for $80.00 and then the motor/regulator for $40.00.  Are these parts from EBAY worth buying?  I am a little leary because of the huge difference in prices.  Do you think replacing the motor will fix my slow opening window?

Answer
Well, I think you should get the motor and regulator and replace the whole deal in one shot.  As far as trusting the product you buy, take a look and see if the seller offers a warranty of any sort.  As well, check the feedback rating of the seller.  Now, from my VERY brief look at sellers, I would recommend the seller "doctorautoparts" because of a good feedback rating and, at the minimum, offers a 90-day warranty.  This is the one I was looking at:
