Sprocket - YG? GD? RG? Eh?

Does anyone know what the letters at the end of the descriptions mean? I'm just looking for a regular sprocket to fix on a regular freewheel hub.

Thanks

It looks like it refers to the ebay shop, nothing to do with the item,i.e. MH refers to ebay shop masson house.
At the price they are selling them they're likely to be poor quality,
I only use Andel,Token or Dura Ace sprockets

Stick to decent ones, they are around £15. Chain Reaction, Wiggle etc. I wouldn't touch any of those above.

If you're just converting a freehub to a singlespeed all you need is a sprocket that fits, and doesn't have the cutouts that help the chain come off the sprocket (when changing gear in its original application). It's basically a flat piece of metal in the shape of a cog, so no point in spending £££s! I doubt the ones from China would be significantly poorer in quality than a £15 one, they'll just take longer to arrive. Imho
