Has anyone tried buying minifigs from eBay? I've noticed the cheaper ones usually come from Hong Kong or Korea - are these legit or some kind of Lego K.O.?

There were Asian market minifigures, but the ones I am thinking of may have been limited to Japan. I am also not 100% sure on which figures have been released as the only time I have seen them is listed on BBTS
|Buy ALL my things!|Collection Thread|Current Collection Count: ~661|
|Wants|Galaxy Force Blue Rumble|
With only promo photography to go on you really can't be sure. Personally I would only risk it on a single figure to begin with if at all.
Collectable minifigs are made in China and I think the demand for them is not as high in Asia compared to the rest of the world given the sheer amount of other cutesy crap they have to compete with. This might explain the lower price.
If lego is anything like transformers you may end up with factory rejects with defects ranging from scratched or poor quality paint apps (not that bad) to parts welded together by melted plastic or hot glue (rage-inducing bad).
