    I'd just like to stick up for some Ebay electronics traders, my brother is one and is extremley good and fair at what he does, he is a power seller
    a good feedback list does count for something. i'd be a lot more confident in sending a few hundred dollars to a guy with several hundred positives and only five or ten negatives, than to somebody who's completed fewer than twenty sales.

    umm... don't know if this service is available in the UK, but around my area there are shops that speciallize in replacing the worn out innards of old rechargeable batteries used in mobile phones, power tools and yes, laptops. The service is called "repacking"

    Repacking is cheaper than buying a new battery and the environmentalists like it too.

    Hope that helps.

    Haven't managed to find anyone in the UK doing it... although it seems to be very popular is Australia

    or, if you find out what the pins are for, and rig up a car battery to use on your laptop? as it will probably last alot longer.
