As far as I have been able to establish, there don't seem to be any clear winners and losers among the range of these Asian bass'. Some have nicer keywork designs and ergonomics, but that is somewhat a matter of personal preferences and something one can largely establish from stock photos. Sound/playing performance seems to be very similar between them and providing the model has double register mechanism, they will out-perform the old Bundys quite significantly in my opinion.
I would describe them as being like those bottles of wine which you can take to a dinner party a they will go down fine ( The dinner parties I'm likely to get invited to at any rate....Ha-ha! ) Whichever one you buy, you can expect it will require a good deal of fiddling about with initially to get it playing properly. After that they should be pretty trouble free.
As Chris pointed out, the more expensive options in this range are by no means necessary better than the cheaper options. It's just that some sellers seem to take advantage of the fact that we are inclined to assume that they will be.
