I ordered some of these yesterday from wiggle who price matched Bike Inn.
Cost me £79.

If the Ortlieb lasts 5 years cheapo has to last 6 months. You hear of Ortlieb and also Vaude panniers lasting 10+ years. Makes the cheapo panniers replacing often not good financially. That's assuming you'll always get £10 panniers. Each to their own.
P.S. I got Ortlieb classic rear panniers for £89 or £80 I can't be remember which. Best buy I've made.
Hang on, all is not lost as I bought a pair, and still have a shiny new one to tape up and use.0
