It would help us help you if you included some form of link or item number so we can find out which eBay seller you're on about.

 

If you don't know how to include a link just ask.

I find with things like this you have to trust the guy/company doing the work. As such Id be looking for someone reputable (and preferably local) to do it for you.

 

Just my 2c

You need to establish exactly how they are going to recon the head - that link doesn't give any detail.

 

They should start by cleaning it, pressure testing it to ensure there are no cracks, check for excessive corrosion, face it, re-cut the valve seats, measure and replace any worn or damaged guides, replace any damaged valves and damaged/broken studs.
