ABS sensor

Looking to purchase a ABS sensor because the DSC light on dash. Looking at Amazon the prices vary from $12 - 62. If I go to Pelica, the prices vary from $44 - $104.
How do you choose? I know I could pay through the nose for the BMW version but aren't some of the others comparable?

I bought both front sensors for my '06 R52 from ebay.....I got the OE part number from real.oem and put that number in the ebay search box....I think I paid around $12 each....parts arrived quickly, fit was exact and easy to do.

That's a far cry from the $104 I've seen. Is the $104 that much better?
