A few of the JB Hifi places have them.
Telstra stores have them.
Quite a few local online stores have them also.
Great thanx for the answer

Your best bet would probably be Tel$tra shops, they sell em for ~$40. These guys also sell them for $40, but you'll pay around $9 for delivery, I ordered one b/w Xmas & NY & got free delivery.
$40 is pretty much the RRP for it so you probably won't find them much cheaper. Personally, I bought a $13 Anker 1900mAh battery and it seems to do the job.
I also got the Anker twin set of batteries for around $20, which included a charger too. Battery works great, and I got 3 batteries now!

So I'm going to a concert next month and want to use my phone to record bands and take photos so I'm thinking about getting the hong kong batteries off ebay (2x 1500mah battery + charging station for $8.99 and free shipping) does anyone have anything good or bad to say about these hong kong batteries from personal experience?

The reviews that some of the customers give on amazon are quite disturbing. The only non oem brand I would trust is seidio. The others don't seem like they're built to last from what I read.

I didn't see many bad reviews on amazon but all the negative feedback on ebay were for different phone types besides incredible... I think I will order these since I will only use it as back up and not main battery

Then it looks like you didn't really need anyone to answer your question.
Seriously, batteries on eBay tend to be a lot more trouble than they are worth. Verizon has amazing prices on batteries with no risk; and Seidio are trustworthy if bought from Seidio.
Otherwise, good luck with your fake eBay battery.
I bought a 3500mah Hong Kong battery for 10 bucks on eBay, and it works great. I would say if you are going to buy cheap, get the biggest one available.

I have 2 of the standard Hong Kong batteries and two of the 3500mAh Hong Kong batteries from ebay and they all work great!! I get about 3 days out of my 3500mAh with stock ROM and kernel.
For 2 of the 3500mAh batteries with back cover and charger I paid $20.99 with free shipping and they got here in about 7 days.

I also received mine today but sadly am returning it. I have 4 of the cheap HK batteries off ebay that I switch out during the day and was thinking I would just get one of these instead. After getting it, putting it on and seeing the bulk it added and how incredibly hard it was to get the Siedio backplate off again, I am thinking that I am going to just stick with the cheapo HK batteries. I use my phone heavily during the day and one of these batteries usually lasts me until I get home around 5pm. I switch out a fresh one at 5pm and I use it off and on until I go to bed, usually between 9pm-11pm which I leave it in overnight off the charger. In the morning, I switch out a fresh one and off to work and the cycle repeats itself. If I end up getting on a long tech support call with Cisco or another vendor, I always have a freshly charged battery in my pocket as well. Well, since I am done with this wall of text about my battery situation that pretty much has nothing to do with this topic, I will end it now.
Thanks for listening.
Even $50 is a complete ripoff. I have 6 spare batteries, all from ebay that cost less than $50 combined. I don't care that they might not have the advertised capacity, but neither does the seidio (according to battery boss) and guaranteed my two cheap 1800mah batteries will easily outlast the 3500mah seidio one for a fraction of the price. So what if I might have to swap one out at some point during the day? On top of it, they don't need to use that HIDEOUS cover that is required for the Seidio.
Went to my local Verizon Corp store yesterday to see if they still had the half off promotion on the extended battery. Bought one a few weeks ago. The sales person wasn't aware of such promotion. She brought out a bin of thunderbolt accessories. I asked her if she can scan their prices, she did. I bought a dock charger for $19.99 ($49.99 value) it fits the extended battery, another extended battery for $24.99 ($49.99 value), and an extended battery case for $10 ($19.99 value). There was more cases for $5, but not for the extended battery. So if you need some accessories, head out to your Verizon corp store. Ask them to scan their prices, their salesperson might think their dock chargers are not on sale.

Looks like accessories are also on sale online. The dock is also available for $20 online. Good deal, because I was just at the store the other day looking for the dock and it was full price.
The dock feels sturdy and looks good. I'm charging my extended battery now.

Someone is selling one here on xda for 30 shipped. Good price http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1578472
I just ordered one from ebay from a seller called shimshop. 30 bucks shipped to canada. Looks like a 3 week wait. So 30 bucks appears to be the average.

I got mine from Handtec because Expansys didn't have stock yet. Was worth it to me at the time and was about the same price. If you think $30 is too much, that's what they cost for genuine OEM batteries. Beware the cheap versions on eBay....they're mostly fakes and one seller is charging about the same price.
What's the best way to detect a fake? No NFC support?
You can get anything on Amazon. Why not take a look there?

Try ebay but be careful with the seller. I got a genuine OEM extended battery from ebay sell mulkin.
expansys is the cheapest i found, negri electronics is selling them for $50 bucks

Unfortunately they don't. The UAG cases are very form fitted to the stock phone.
That site seems a bit too hip for me to buy from...
Same problem as ever, won't ship to Europe. Main company does, but I end up paying 2x more with shippings and customs and may take up to several months to get here...
I noticed the not eligible for return comment and hesitated...
I want an Aviator, but I may wait for the price on Amazon to drop some.
its still cheaper on amazon ($25 shipped) fab is $27
Iam so f**cking mad at UAG, i order the AERO color like two months at full retail price and still haven't gotten the case. They said. they ship then out last week. Lets see if it come by Friday if not ill try to get my money back and order from Fab,com
