Google and follow trusted ebay sellers. what country are you in?

Save your time, buy a orginal battery
I have bought off batteries online, some insanely cheap "originals" as well. Upon arrival, it looks almost exactly like the real one, written "Made in Korea" as well. If I didn't have another original one to compare I won't notice a difference at all, until I use it and realise it drains very fast. called the seller up, and he had to admit it's made in China, and they are just "compatible OEM", obviously trying to smoke through.
In conclusion, I think you rather be off on the streets doing some odd jobs for 2-3 hours, get an original off reputable sellers, than to waste few days here, as you won't have an good and easy answer to it.

i bought mine from samsung store cost me about USD$30

After looking at your post
I think this will be the hardest part to find out if the battery is original or not.

Don't they have samsung store or representative in india?

I believe they are genuine because NFC functionality works.
Other shops do not have them because they are not sold separately in Korea (or anywhere in the world), they come in the box of the Galaxy Nexus in Korea. (http://www.gsmarena.com/korean_galaxy_nexus_to_have_an_extended_2000mah_battery-news-3449.php)
I believe the seller is taking them out of the box and reselling, thus why he states no retail packaging. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Sam...Accessories&hash=item1c222d09fc#ht_4850wt_905)
This is the packaging it comes in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20976912&postcount=213

I'm not paranoid, I'm simply not ignorant.
Batteries are dangerous if build with cheap materials without rigid check during the manufacturing process.
Batteries can explode, can leak acid and can burn. Is this paranoia?

Yes it is paranoia if the paranoid thoughts or ideas are unfounded,The seller on eBay has legitimate OEM battery's,people have posted pictures & reported they are in fact real yet you continue to bog up the forums & threads with this nonsense.Nobody cares if you don't want to buy one,nobody cares if you do.What we all do care about is information in these threads & on xda as a whole stays as clean and on topic as possible,we all come here for REAL information and stuff like this(That you have posted in multiple threads)just makes it more difficult to navigate & find what were looking for.My suggestion would be to read the entire thread I posted for you on page 1,instead of creating new threads with things that have already been or are being discussed.

There is no proof that that battery is genuine so it is highly unprobable that an ebayer could have an item before clove, amazon, expansys and other bigs.
As always happened in the mobile world most of the batteries sold on ebay before.official release are only facked batteries sometimes sold as genuine like in this case
Verizon was selling official replacements for $20 last week. I posted that in the ... other battery thread. Not sure if the sale is still on.
I believe they had them on Samsung.com.

You said you're not ignorant, but you said in the other thread that THESE WERE REAL.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-x-1750mAh...149237?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a6ddaa6b5
Samsung has not distributed the extended batteries outside of South Korea. The eBay seller is FROM SOUTH KOREA. He is probably getting the batteries from people that don't need them and selling them on eBay. Stop being so dense.
Also again.. it's spelled "faked"
If you don't think they're real then just don't buy them.
Move on.
You can wait till whatever sites you expect to be 'real' and just buy it from them. No body cares if you wanna buy it now. Stop making it such a big deal.
Also, how will you prove that all the websites you pointed out are gunna be 'real'

How does that seller get the screens? If it's from the same factory that manufactured the official screens, then there's still a possibility you'd get a defective one.
Would it be cheaper/easier/more reliable to just buy a scrap phone for parts instead of just a manufacturer replacement screen? That way you're at least assured the screen worked on its original device, plus you have all the extra hardware as well. I've done this with my old iPhone 4 and it worked like a charm and only cost me $80 from craigslist.

Hello,
Did you purchase your replacement finally?
I have seen some offers on ebay but I am not sure if they are Superamoled screens.
I have also been told to call Samsung directly at 1-877-EZ2GALAXY (1-877-392-4252), Mon-Fri: 7 AM - 9 PM (CST), Sat: 9 AM - 6 PM (CST).

And that's how you get the lines and blotches on your new screen! It's a slim chance, especially since the screen problem has been brought to the public's attention, but still a chance. There are probably CRATES of old, potentially flawed screens out there that have yet to be sold.

Think the whole point here is to prevent having to shut down the device, remove /replace battery, then reboot. Especially if you have a case.

Yeah, I got a "shipped" e-mail this morning.
I figured I'd chance it because a) it's $35 and b) buyer protection through eBay/PayPal.
I doubt he got his hands on 99 stolen phones. The more likely scenario is no shipment or empty boxes.

I buy fake when i can't afford originals (wich is not often)
Well.. This thread was pointless... OP, don't blame you. other dude, grow up. He was just asking a simple question, not offending anyone (except you for some reason). Who cares if the company is not getting the money for a fake, they are over charging like crazy anyways. I bet the case costs like 10 bucks to produce, MAX.

Since when do you define what is proper forum etiquette and what is not? The last I checked, that was the moderator's job. The poor guy is just trying to find an inexpensive version of the case. Not everyone can afford a $50+ case.

Thanks for your comment. To answer you:
I don't. I merely expressed my opinion as you do, and of course that's your right to do.
In addition you are totally right that he is free to post anything and it might not go agains forum rule number #6, hence I did not mention anywhere it is against the rules.
I am also aware of the fact that not anyone can afford a US$50+ case, btw I also can't or won't. Again I just expressed my opinion which you can take or leave.

He possibly could have phrased his question differently. Maybe used imitation instead of fake? Imitation sounds better but I guess it just depends on who's reading it and whether or not they can see through things like that. Still, the fact remains that he was asking for some help regarding a cheaper case that looked like the Atom. Instead, you offer him your opinion on what he should and should not ask for in the forum. Necessary? I think not. Did you help him? No. Did it look like you were trying to put yourself on a pedestal? Absolutely. Why even take the time to reply to his question if not to help?

I buyed one from dhgate.com --> user:worldexpt --> costs 13.5 with free shipping
I wanted to buy the orignial one, but I dont pay more than 1/2 of the case for shipping to switzerland -.-
One word of caution - you might be careful of name brand items coming from China. Homeland Security (Customs) can, likely won't, but can, open your package and destroy it if it's a branded knock-off.

i bought mine last year (the fake one - i have no idea about the ori)...TBH, i rarely use it..
yes indeed it got a nice fit on s3 but it decreased my wifi signal (and maybe phone signal too) plus sometimes the internet will be slow as hell..
so i decided to stay with UAG..also nice and no prob at all..
