This one. It costs $13.88. Why is it so much cheaper than, for example, this one, which costs $21.49?
Is the more expensive one better? Are they even legit, original LG batteries, and not some 2000 mAh crap?
Oh, and this one is only $7.99
First one from China definitely not original LG, pixelated or no LG logo at bottom.

With the exception of the pixelated one, they seem to be legitimate.
They are cheaper because LG marks up the price on products on their website because you know you're buying quality. These may have been made or ordered straight from a factory.
However, they could just be generic clones. China doesn't follow the same copyright and patent standards as the rest of the world. They allow their factories to produce materials with a name that may not be true.
The $21.49 guarantees that is it not a clone, but does come from Hong Kong.
The $7.99 one comes from Brooklyn, says it's genuine, but does not guarantee it. It could've been cloned in China and shipped to a warehouse in America.
Nonetheless, you should get the same functionality out of all of them.
Since my last post I received Anker battery for LG G3, used their batteries the past 2-3 years in other devices, trusted quality.
Similar performance as my stock the past 3 days.

You need to check the reputation of the seller before you buy from E-Bay.
And even than you are not sure about the quality of the battery.
The best is to buy the original battery recommended by HTC.
Actually, the best thing to do is, whenever you even remotely consider buying something from ebay, have a friend whack you in the head with a brick. There's a reason why the prices on ebay are so low...it's cause 99% of the products are either advertised as something they are not, or the seller is a straight up scammer and won't send you anything at all. Feedback is useless; there are networks of scammers out there who generate feedback for each other that appears to be legitimate.
If I sound a bit disgruntled, I'm sorry, but so far over the past 3 months I've lost over 500$ on ebay and STILL waiting for paypal dispute resolution to take care of it.

......................although; one can always have a great experience, bar the 2 cars I have bought! (Cars were under £200!)
Ebay is good but you have to do alot of research, just received the Seinheiser CX500 headphones.......fantastic and the world is far away due to the quality.........
Will
That's cool...I know I have had SOME good transactions on ebay, but I just hate the fact that when things go wrong they seem to tell you that they will help fix it when they dont...they need to regulate things more, because there are so many scammers on ebay...i would bet my life that there are at least 100 people gettimg scammed right this second
BTW Seinheiser is great..I've tried those and I liked them
For wired headphones though i use Ultimate Ears in ear monitors...theyre amazing but they cost ALOT
I'm trying to some some studio quality bluetooth headphones at the moment with no avail
Ebay
I get just about all of my phone accessories on ebay. Most of the stuff while cheap does what they say. True feedback does not mean much but I have bought all my extra batteris there and saved a lot of money. $ 12 for a battery there compaired to $40-50 eleswhere. I think it is worth a try.
I second surgex0. When stuff goes wrong ebay/paypal doesn't care.
And batteries - I got some 'new' batteries once that were original branded but lasted 20% my store bought batteries did. I'd stay away.
The official site doesn't seem to stock these anymore. Does anyone know if they are available anywhere else?
I have been through a Cameron Sino replacement which, despite being 1500mah, lasts no time at all after only a couple of months. The original even at 1350mah was a better performer.
Have you tried Ebay? I just bought brand new battery's for my kaiser from there for less than $12
dealextreme for about 3$ each or 8$ for a extra large battery with a replacement phone back. I order from there all the time and the best part is free shipping no matter how small the order~
the batteries on dealextreme are aged and the one that looks like the original is a cheap counterfait, real junk

Agreed, i bought one on DX too....its crappy, i'm looking for one as well.
HTC retailer store carries their brand batteries.
Howdy,
What is the consensus on the re-sale value (USD) of a dell streak 5 considering:
Its in perfect physical and working condition.
It is unlocked.
Including original accesories, box, and commuter case.
Coming from a non-smoking household ( )
I searched craigslist and amazon; and it looks like average price is $495+. On other site I even see it for 700+ Considering I will be using all the proceeds for a Note (most likely intl v. given all the state side let down) should I be solid on 495+ until I find a buyer or accept lower offers like 390ish.
Its obv up to me but the resale value of the streak if prob going to plunge once the commoners catch on to the upcoming Note. That aside I really love the Streak, its actually difficult to sell it. And they love makes you stupid.
TIA for weighing in.
BTW I paid less than 300 for the device. That matters.
Depends entirely on how urgently you wish to sell it, longer you can wait the more you'll get (true for everything)
A very good condition + accessories one should sell for ~$200-300 on ebay.
I wouldnt expect more then $325 but as it's ebay you never know. A realistic expectation is around $225-275 range.
Yes, what TheManii said....... I just bought one for $215 and a friend bought one for $189. I was prepared to bid up to $270, ditto my friend.
I just bought one eBay UK as new for £180. It came today. Unfortunately the seller didn't include the data cable so of I went to the local store to buy a 30 pin iPhone cable......which doesn't work. There are specific cables for the streaks.
The Tesco outlet on eBay has them for £180 refurbed. Delivered with a 1 year warranty -h**p://goo.gl/WZB1E
I've noticed there's a few cheaper DK30's, there's a fulfilled by Amazon one for £23 delivered and a few on eBay for £25 delivered. My concern is I know there's cheaper non-official docks out there and although the ones I'm looking at on ebay/Amazon are claiming to be official, they may be fakes. Has anyone ordered a cheaper DK30 recently and was it as expected? I might be worrying over nothing but thought it worth checking first to see what others thought.
Thanks,
John

This is the one I bought
http://www.ebay.com/itm/290988627774?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Its legit. Sony branding, sony tag on the USB cable.
$27 USD including shipping... that sounds about what your pricing is.
They're probably not fakes but for the price you're probably better off buying two aftermarket ones and still have change to spare. I got one of these and it's pretty good. Only gripe is that the charging time is quite slow via the magnetic dock. But it's nice how it comes with a short micro USB cable as a pass through in case I want to plug it in for a faster charge or plug in my SmartWatch 2 to charge at the same time.

Can anyone comment if these are legit?

Seller claims they are genuine and their rating is decent, but don't want a fake.
Thanks in advance.

This phone is extremely hard to find a legit battery for. But my rule of thumb is, if you want genuine, don't go to ebay. Check my thread that may help

Ebay is fine if you know what you're doing. I purchased one from a seller a while back and haven't had any issues with it, but I made sure to do my research beforehand.
The seller took pictures (not generic web images) of each battery he was selling, still in their LG hard plastic packaging that you would get if you bought it from a store. Not the no-packaging bulk factory batteries that everyone else sells. And unlike those bulk batteries, the one I purchased had the same language writing as my stock battery: English, Korean, French, Spanish, and Portuguese(?). Compared to other batteries you see on ebay that are all in Chinese save for some bits and pieces of English.

Because I don't have one within a 100 mile radius of my current location? That's like assuming I live in a big city and have access to every single store and manufacturer dude, not cool.
I bought 3 battery from ebay 2 from 1 seller and 1 with the LG charging cradle. I have been using them for 4 months. I read reviews on amazon about so-called legit batteries and people say that it isn't compatible with phone.
Hello,
I bought a genuine battery from Amazon and discovered that is really old (produced un june 2014).
I checked also other sites on Amazon and all batteries seems 1 year old.
The battery seems impossible to find in real shops.
I have heard that LG battery cells are not the best and break down over time. Does anyone know if this is true? just wondering anyways if not buying a genuine battery what would be a good brand to buy?
On my Samsung phone I was pleased with an Anker brand aftermarket battery.
Personally I advice you a better one (IMHO):
http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Anker...F8&qid=1446501645&sr=8-2&keywords=lg+g3+anker
This battery is really well made and got premium cells.
I've purchased one for my Samsung Galaxy S2 (ofcourse related model) and it totally outperforms stock battery.
I'm really happy with it!

Are you sure? I've seen this listing on Amazon as well even before I read your post. I agree with @fubag, by the looks of the terrible reviews, that is a fraud of a seller.
Post something only if you have bought from it!
You can check this by the way :
http://www.aliexpress.com/item/100-...b201644_4_79_78_77_82_80_62,searchweb201560_1
Exactly...i 've got one from aliexpress..It looks like its original.
I bought Anker G3 battery (two) and charger package for the cost of probably just one genuine battery (if you can actually find a real one), couldn't be happier. Performance as good as the original battery. The charger is very convenient to use and the charging speed is decent (overnight). So now I have three batteries, always fully charged and ready to go for any trip I will take.
Have you tried contact you local lg service center
Its around 20$ send through you home��
