The link above takes you to the entry for just a reducing collar for $46. The router lifts are $480-$530 Australian. Certainly cheaper than an Incra or Woodpecker lift but with unknown quality. Don't think I'd part with $500ish sight unseen.

Oh...
I don't know what's going on there. Here is a screenshot of the page I was trying to link to:

Hi Rev,
You'll see on your screenshot that that is the "Type I" (highlighted in the box around the middle of the screen). If you look a bit further down the page where it describes the types the Type I is shown as just a reducing ring for narrower-bodied motors. The boxes to the left of the Type group link to the lifts and plates, the ones towards the right link to reducing rings.
Must admit I got sucked in there for a bit too!

Funnily enough I was looking at these earlier, in particular the D1 - 107 set for 80mm spindles. They seem pretty good quality, and the reviews seem okay. Carbatec now have the Kreg one for around $600 from memory, but I've seen reports of sub standard machining, unless a few were just unlucky, which is entirely possible.
Both though have the mounting in the corners, not centres as with most lifts. So some drilling/tapping might be in order.
This link has some better shots inc measurements:

That ad is ridiculously deceptive.

Poorly laid out, yes, confusing yes, but I don't know if I'd call it deliberately deceptive, I think it's just very typical of a lot of Chinese sites that just throw all the info and products out there in no particular order with scant details, and leave it to the consumer to decipher.
When you go to the page it's pretty clear from the selections that there are many differently priced configurations available to suit different size routers or spindles, with additional accessories available separately.
