There seems to be a LOT of retailers selling this. Can you respond with who actually filled your order through Amazon and if they were good/OEM/bad?

I remain confused why every time I click the link for this product a different price and seller is featured. They range from $3.01 to $28 (for new) and how are we supposed to know which is going to give us the quality battery and not? My order says the 2 batteries I ordered came from PacificCellularDistributor ($9.30) and neither one would charge past 83%. The vendor us not happy with my negative review saying their batteries are OEM and the fault must lie with Amazon and pulling the wrong stock for them because they supposedly supply only OEM batteries. I'm not the only one with a comment their battery from them did the same, so my review will not be edited. Like I said in my review, I can believe these are OEM however I doubt they are new. One has to wonder what happens to all those batteries when people upgrade their phones. I don't know, but I suspect they are sold in bulk to resellers who then sell them as "genuine OEM" batteries. The old saying "you get what you pay for" may indeed be the case here. I decided if I'm going to save some money vs a new one from the carrier phone store then I'll just take my chances on a vendor making "compatible" batteries, at least then I'm likely to get a new one. Good luck with all of you - I can't figure out the "fulfillment" process here when several vendors supply what is claimed to be the same thing and with extreme price ranges.

Sold by Simple Cell Inc.Its a good battery.It is better than most. It might fall short of original battery by about an hour.

My order was filled by Cell Talk. The product appears to be a factory replacement, but I am always sceptical when the price is so low. My S3 has turned into a dog, so the battery was not my problem. The replacement works great. They had it shipped to me right away, it was a good experience. Hope this helps...

Mine came from MZ Outlet. It's a piece of crap that holds charge 1/2 the time my 2 yr old battery does. Buyer beware.

I got this via PacificCellularDistributor. It had the Samsung brand name on it. The order went through fine and quickly; the battery just won't charge all the way.

I ordered a battery from "Ultimate Accessories" in late March. As of May 9, it still hasn't arrived, and they have no clue as to when it might finally get here.
1528926
This was provided by Kiosk Boutique and it is fine. It appears to be the same as what was in my phone but I am surprised it doesn't seem to give me any longer charge than the one I have.

I received this battery from PacificCellularDistributor. It arrived in 3 days and it is OEM. It is exactly the same as the battery that comes with the original phone, comparable battery life.

Bad... the same thing happened to me. I got an open-box item. I asked for a replacement and was told the product is no longer available.

These are Drop Shipped as are most of our products, direct from the Distributor. I was waiting for some answers from them on other issues today but they never did get back to me. So did it come in just a plain corrugated box or in some other manufacturers packaging? I can't imagine, as large and respected as this distributor is that they would ship anything but the genuine article. Maybe it had something to do with the shipping container and the fit. If you just received it and think that it is not genuine or you may want it replaced, do not use it for now if you have any reason to think it might be returned. I won't be able to reach them now until Monday and if need be I can have them call you to explain. I really don't think there are any knock offs or other brands of that product but we can ask them. Are there any other product numbers, embossed markings that may indicate the brand? There is an SKU for it but I don't know if it is embedded in the material or not. Let me know if you want me to continue to verify this and I will get with them and then back to you or have them contact you. Thanks, Bob Sex-Trix

Ï have never had a problem ordering from amazon. If something is not what you ordered, call customer service. They will make it right.

I had the same results when I sent them email; that's why I decided to call them. As far as lying, if I don't get my order in another week, I'll know who did the lying/misinforming. Amazon should realize they have alot of competition and I'm willing to pay a couple extra dollars for better service than this. I'm supposed to get my order by the 17th. I'll drop a line here to let you know what happen, if you like.

I know its ridiculous. I had been trying to hunt one down also and finally got my hands on one. My suggestion would be to try Newegg and J&R because both have options to request an automatic notification when the product comes in stock. Both retailers had units in stock last week but sold out very quickly. Last I checked Newegg had an ETA of 11/22 and J&R told me last week they'd be getting more within 1-2 weeks but they allow you to add it to cart and pre-purchase now which will ensure one of the units in that next shipment will be yours. Between these two choices I'd go with J&R if at all possible only because there'll be no tax and free shipping and as a bonus you can use Amex points if you happen to have any and purchase through shopamex.com. The strategy that worked for me was to signup for auto-alerts from both of these retailers and I also created a Google alert to be e-mailed anytime a new post appeared that included "Aspire Timeline AS1810T" as well as a Bountii alert. I know it sounds like overkill but I was concerned it would only get more difficult to get one the closer we got to X-Mas so I chose to cover all possible bases and it worked-got one of these puppies in my hands in less than a week. Anyway best of luck - I assure you its worth the wait it's a great little machine.

Mine was - I don't know what Amazon is currently offering. I only buy new, but Amazon guarantees what they sell.

I just ordered one , so I'll let ya know when I get it. Hopefully its just an open box return. Too bad you cant go look at them . The Amazon Warehouse is an affiliate of Amazon.com , so I assume they are reputable and you can return it if not satisfied.Bob

Looks like 4 other vendors have beat Amazon to the punch and have them in stock now. I spoke to a Amazon rep a couple days ago she said they don't know when they will be in stock.

I don't know who has originals-(OEM) , but I purchased eight (8) of these total pieces of garbage and only had two (2) that actually worked. Personally, if I wanted to take the chance of being ripped off, I would have purchased from eBay, not amazon.....

You are welcome! Thank goodness Amazon allows all comments. That's why I keep going back to Amazon. But when one of their suppliers seems to go cheap, we need to be clear!

If you order thru Amazon, its a guarantee its an original. Wait for the sale and buy it from Amazon. You can't go wrong with this company.

I agreed I usally order from newegg. I thought I would give amazon a try, but it seems like they take forever. I dont' think I will buy from amazon again. unless they have some crazy low price.

I ordered mine on January 15th and haven't heard a peep from Amazon. It used to be that they were good about being able to get new release items out in a competitive manner. It now appears that they have lost whatever edge they might have had. If I see one locally, I will buy it and will cancel my Amazon order.

mine was the rip off, but if yu get supplied from Amazon they should be genuine.

I checked out on Amazon, and there're at least 3 different listings - they should all be the same, so the price is whether it's from Amazon directly, fulfilled by Amazon or an external vendor. I'd just go with the lowest cost one, through Amazon.
