    The 2 vertical bars in the picture bolt to the TV vesa mounts and then hang on the bracket .

    The eBay one will work

    thanks. But tv descriptions says
    VESA Hole Pattern:75 x 75 mm, 100 x 100 mm, 200 x 200 mm, 300 x 300 mm, 400 x 200 mm, 400 x 400 mm, 600 x 400 mm

    no mention of 200 x 300. Did find one on Amazon, but that was 300 x 200. Is that the same thing as 200 x 300 ?

    Generally the two vertical brackets fit onto the TV so the spacing you are interested in is whether the vertical bars fit the TV.

    The vertical mounting brackets then hook onto the horizontal bars of the mount (with latches to prevent them coming off) The horizontal bars usually have detents at about 10-20mm intervals so that the vertical bars locate at the appropriate point so there's usually a lot of flexibility in the width.

    Looking at the bracket some of the vertical fixing holes are slotted so there's lots of adjustment to fit nearly all TV's and as the TV just hooks onto the horizontal rails there also looks to be lots of adjustment. If the description suggests 200x 200 and 300 x 300 or even 400x400 then there's no reason to suggest that you couldn't have any combination between 200 and 400mm (300mm is between the two so there must be holes to accommodate the fixings)
    Never under estimate the power of stupid people in large numbers

    As that bracket is designed for a larger vesa fixing check your connections and cable runs won't be blocked by the bracket structure.
