I recently bought 2 (different type) replacement LiIon batteries for=20
Samsung phones from eBay.  It was a US seller, and the prices were cheap=20
(about $4.00).   They are labelled Samsung and are identical to the=20
originals.  Although, the one for my friend appeared to have a marred=20
outer label.   The one I tried in my phone seems to perform OK.
Anyhow, I ran across a tip somewhere about how capacity is related to=20
battery mass.  I weighed mine, and the replacement is the same as the=20
original.  So I guess I got lucky.  Hope my friend's works as well.
