As with everything you get what you pay for!

Personally I would only buy a relay from a main dealer.

New fuel pump relay fitted. Got from eurocarparts. But still got an intermittent fuel pump problem. It sometimes will not prime when starting my 8v gti. Any other ideas?

My ECP fuel pump relay has been fine for over a year. It's a decent German made part, I would bet it's something else.
