I wonder what you mean by "a set of rings fail", in which way are your thoughts for this comment.
You can buy all sorts of rings off eBay so if you are hinting at something "no name" or some "china made knock offs" I don't know anybody that has purchased those but have purchased known brand rings of eBay like Weaver, Leupold and SportsMatch from reputable sellers.
Cheap rings I suppose can break, strip threads and worse by causing damage to your scope since they are not made correctly.
Don't know what this has to do with the initial question of asking about 34mm scope rings..??
My rifle scopes vary from the cheapest at about $500 to the dearest just under $5,000 so there is no way I would consider a cheap set of rings to use. Even the top end I buy can be aluminium or steel depending on my use. Aluminium high end versions for use when I have a weight limit to satisfy in competition shooting and when I say "high end" I mean like $300 or so. More money for rings than some people spend on a scope.
