Considering the low price I am guessing those bearings are made in China. China does not understand the concept of quality control, some of that stuff is good, some of it is junk, and there is no guarantee which you will get. It is also possible that the bearings being sold on eBay are rejects, and were intercepted on their way to the scrap bin. Also, having worked in a ball bearing factory for about 25 years, I can tell you that it is not a matter of just removing the shields. A bearing made to be packed to be packed with grease and then shields installed usually does not have the same tolerances and specs. as the bearing which does not have seals or shields and is meant to operate immersed in oil. Not saying it won't work, but to me it would not be worth the gamble.
