I just had my indy replace the compressor (eeuroparts Behr/Hella $375 overnight to mechanic), idler pulley, belt, drier, refrigerant and an oil change for 1k total which includes the compressor cost mentioned. Saved $400 in the end using the eeuro unit as I was quoted $700+ for the compressor alone from him. Didn't bother asking which brand he would have used otherwise.
It's only been a week so It's way too early to tell if the compressor is any good but it was one of the cheapest new ones I found. I know that last sentence doesn't sound great and I usually prefer new OEM parts but I was comfortable having used Behr/Hella in another car. I would have no problem using remanned from a trusted brand.
So far so good though. Quiet and blows as cold as ever. I didn't have too much time to shop around so I'm not familiar with the quality of the brand you mentioned other than the OEM Sanden. Had I seen that ebay listing and had the time, I would have definitely gone that route.
'00 Viggen if it matters.
