Luk vs OEM Clutch

I need to replace my MCS clutch. I'm thinking about going OEM. When I read through some posts I saw people mentioning that Luk is the official parts supplier for Mini.

When I shopped around I found Luk prices to be 50% lower than OEM.

Is there a difference between Luk and OEM? Would anyone recommend getting Luk products?

Don't know much about Luk but I'm getting ready to replace my clutch and going with Valeo. People seems to have great reviews of the Valeo clutch. For less than $500, it also comes with a flywheel.
