Dave most of the ebay ones are illegal anyway so i wouldn't buy them. Take your documents to allparts of halfords if you want legal because all plates have to be BS AU 145d type approved and carry the makers name and postcode. Any that aren't risk you getting the same £30 fine as having glaringly illegal plates (and you can get one fine for each plate and have your plates seized) so IMO either decide your gonna take the risk and get something you like or be totally legal.
It wont be long before they really start cracking down on it. With the advent of ANPR on every street corner and every police car vehicles on false plates are becoming more common and people with plates that don't conform will start getting fined because it will put the illegal plate makers out of business and thus make it harder for the "real" criminals.
