Does anyone have any suggestions for replacement batteries for a Macbook? I have been searching online and came across Laptop Battery One and Mac Sales. Does anyone have experience with any of these sellers or recommendstions?

Anyone have any feedback from Laptop Batter One? You can save $100 on a battery. Is it worth the risk?

The battery is dead. It's time to get a new battery. OWC is another option I found.

Seems risky. Especially since some of the sellers are coming from China....How can you know that the battery isn't used?
