You get what you pay for and there is a reason why they are much cheaper.....
For that sort of gear, you may want to check a place like Craig's list. There are often things like that for sale that come off boats that are being scrapped. However, these actuators do not usually malfunction while the cheap new ones often have irregularities and would not pass quality inspections.

Just rebuild the one you have with a new seal kit
