I'm not sure on what the ebay kit entails but...
I had a dial indicator as well as a spare old cracked drain plug already (have you checked yours?) so for me it was a hour or so of my time monkeying around to make my own. I have used it 5-6 times now and it works perfectly. The DV socket I bought from PDR and here's a picture of the puller (and oil plug holder) I made
