Judging by some of the comments on the official RasPi forum, you may want to spend a little more and avoid ebay, or at least the very cheap versions.

If you have a modern mobile phone, it is highly likely that the charger for it will work with the Pi, as this was the reason they chose this power source in the first place.

I have a charger for an HTC desire and a second one for the Samsung Galaxy SII and they are both rated at 5V, 1 amp which will be fine.
