NOPI vs. Mazdatrix Clutch Hydraulics

I have a slave cylinder leak, and after reading searches, I came to the conclusion that i should just replace the whole slave cyl., master cyl., and flex line. Instead of rebuilding slave cyl.
Why is NOPI so much cheaper on their products? I found MC = $31, and SC = $18 (TOKICO)
Mazdatrix was MC= $66, SC= $39, Stainless Flex= $18.
Are the mazdatrix parts OEM, which explains price, or is TOKICO really cheap?
What should I do?

I'd buy from NOPI. I bought a brake master cylinder from them for an FC for under $70. It worked like a charm and I never had a single problem with it.

IIRC, Tokico made the original equipment parts.

He's paying the OEM markup Mazdatrix has to pass on to us.

Trust us, buy the one at NOPI, it's brand new and good quality. Sometimes, you just really find a good deal.
