Looking for first hand experience with cheap axles.

After failing to notice a ripped boot on the passenger side CV cup and having the axle completely fall apart, I replaced it with a low mile OEM piece and swapped the axle cups left and right preventatively. Despite this, I am still having axle shake and am leaning towards replacing both sides to eliminate it. (200k mile car)

I work in the parts industry, so you don't need to explain to me that part store axles are all made in china with no qc. I already know deal.

My question is for those that have used part store or other cheap brand axles. What did you buy and what was your experience? Duralast golds with unlimited replacements are tempting since it's a quick job to replace them. Please don't chime in unless you've purchased and used cheap axles.

Thanks a lot for your help!
