Sourcing axle shaft replacements... Factory only or reman? S80

This is for a 1999 Volvo S80. 88k miles on odometer.

My local Indie volvo shop says one of my axle shafts has some slop and will need replacement before long.

Factory parts are expensive -- $600++

Remanufactured units are much less expensive, but I wonder about the quality.

Anybody have experience with the 3rd-party remanufactured units? I'm guessing the quality isn't there but thought I'd ask before I popped for factory parts...

Thanks in advance!
