Ebay deal 3 rohd160 $21 shipped

Just a heads up I bought 3 oem batteries off ebay from the seller oem_4_less for $21 shipped. Package was sent form cali and arrived in 3 days. These look to be 100% genuine. I compared them to my oem battery and they are exactly the same. The seller didn't have the correct battery listed but I sent a best offer for three batteries @ $7 each and stated that they have to be Rhod160's not the BTR6300B that they list as being oem for the evo. They accepted and replied with an email that if I wanted to wait an extra day they would have the red 160's in stock. The oem extended batteries and door covers are available too for $35 shipped. Im not affiliated with oem 4 less just figured I would share this great deal with all the members.

Guaranteed they are counterfeit for that price. There are a TON of batteries on ebay that claim to be OEM but are really just cheap chinese batteries with a red HTC sticker on them. Look at the extended batteries that they are claiming are OEM, they have the same red sticker on them but the real ones are black with a white sticker.

I thought the same thing but figured what the hell. Then received them. If they are fakes I would be amazed. Same exact plastic case, same exact sticker. same moisture indicator sticker. Hell They even have different serial numbers on them. Threw them on my digital scale and they all weighed 30 grams...same as an oem battery. If they are fakes then they must be some high quality fakes. and actually the extended BTE6300B is red and its for the incredible rated at
2150 mah the extended evo's are black and rated 2600 mah. both batteries are interchangeable.

Meathead,
Our batteries are 100% original, not counterfeit.
Due to our contracts with both Tier 1 carriers and OEM manufacturers, we are able to secure new product, then retail them below what brick and mortar carrier locations would.

The battery in your picture is an AFTERMARKET piece made for Sprint, not an OEM HTC battery, as is being discussed.
Technically, HTC never made an extended battery for the EVO. Hence why there are no OEM HTC EVO extended battery doors, only aftermarket.
The extended batteries and doors, sold in Sprint stores, do NOT have HTC logos on them, because they are not made by HTC.
Now, the extended battery(BTE6300) for the HTC ADR6300 Incredible will work with the EVO 4G, and provide more battery life/talk time.
Glad we cleared that up.

Never trust a guy who compares an aftermarket battery to an OEM one, to justify his ignorance.

Don't do it!! my buddies phone caught on fire on his night stand from a "runaway battery". I would not trust them. Luckily it happened in the morning and he was not asleep.

It always nice when the seller is willing to post to clarify things.

Samsung batteries from eBay...legit?

I came across this on eBay and I was wondering if these are legit or counterfeit or what...
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/2-X-1750mah-...US_Batteries&hash=item2319062694#ht_500wt_922
For the price of two, it's a great deal, but only if they are real Samsung batteries.
Has anyone ordered them?

It say OEM. So I'd assume so, google that model number..return it if it isn't.

Kinda shady
$13.88 for two batteries? I wouldn't risk it. Sure you're spending about $15 for two batteries, but then you might damage your $600 phone. There are other reputable eBay sellers such as shimshop who are selling genuine batteries and other accessories for reasonable prices. Hope this helps.

Yeah, that's my concern, but what makes these different from Mugen or Seidio batteries? I've had back luck with one of those brands and paid a lot more for the batteries from them. If they are real Samsung's, it's a good deal, no? I guess I can always get Samsung to confirm the serial number on the batteries to confirm they are legit, and EBay offers buyer protection if they are fakes.
These would be spares anyways, not everyday use... I would literally charge them and put me in the fridge for when I need them on an extended outing or something.

Difference is the NFC antenna.

These eBay batteries in question have NFC (as they would being OEM). It says so right on the battery itself. I'm talking more about reliability. Are the expensive "brand name" compatible batteries better then "cheapo" eBay ones. And again, these are allegedly original Samsung's.
Now, I did see similar batteries which had the "A" in Samsung reversed so it looks like a "V"... Obviously, those are fakes, but the sellers never claimed them to be originals anyways.

OEM meens Orginal equipment manufacturer
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_equipment_manufacturer
Those batteries seems to bee a little too sheep to bee OEM batteries in my opinion, but who knows....
I bought an OEM battery and OEM charger stand for 44$ the battery cost 31,99 for the battery and it was real OEM.

....................................................

If it is through ebay u can open a dispute ebay will have u covered from there with either get the refund for u or refund u out of their own pocket and the seller will probably be in deep shiat if they value their account and reputation

Those are dirt cheap, I doubt they're legit. Especially for 2! They're probably not Samsung official, but something very similar. I don't know... I have a pet peeve for these kinds of things. I only trust the original batteries, mugen, and seidio.

For that price I don't think they are originals. My friend got a set and they last less than the real ones.

I'll go against the grain
They are from Hong Kong so that will go some way to explaining the cheap price. I bought two genuine Samsung 2500mah batteries off a UK seller for £5.99 each including shipping.
Batteries are cheap these days

I've been burned by buying eBay stuff advertised as OEM. Don't believe a word those guys are saying, especially if it's suspiciously cheap. I think what they really mean is "OEM equivalent," and we know how much meaning that really carries.,,,

Where to buy genuine N7000 battery in UK?

Hi,
Ebay and amazon are full of "original replacements", which are far from being as good as original.
Is there a shop that actually sells true, genuine samsung n7000 batteries?
Regards,

If you want to be sure try Samsung. Anker 2700 is cheaper and better from my experience.
Edit: Checked Samsung UK on line store - no battery for obsolete device.

buy from amazon, but make sure its sold and dispatched directly by amazon, then you will get a legitimate one
