Has anyone ordered Direct-Fit Airtight holders from this seller on ebay? Seems to be a good price. Do they appear genuine?

They seem to be genuine Air-Tites. They do have free shipping and returns. They also sell lots of ugly colorized coins.

Yeah not a fan of the colored items. Guess I could order a smaller amount as a trial run

I have never tried to save a few cents on coin holders. The potential for damage to the coins is always present. I've seen some examples of bad damage due to sub-standard holders over the years. A small savings at purchase time just never seemed worth the risk to me.

My guess is that they are Chinese knock offs

Note that the listing is for "Airtight" or "Air Tight" holders. Official "Air-Tite" holders are spelled differently. The official manufacturer's website is https://airtiteholders.com/

I've found Air-Tites.com to be a good source for official Air-Tite holders. Usually less expensive than the manufacturers website.

Good catch. Ok I'll stick with a trusted source.
