£125 for a 6 cell battery from Dell ???

Inspiron 6400.

It says on their website you should only buy a Dell battery for your
Dell laptop.

Is this bull and if so what should i be paying around?
 
Just out of interest I see some on ebay that are from Hong Kong ect
and they are about £35 deliv.

I know they are 3rd party batteries but should I be cautious ?

Has anyone here used a 3rd party battery with good results ?
 
Just orded (19/09/2008) a replacement dell battery from that ebay shop £55.93 delivered.
It's a 3rd party battery "danaq" and feedback suggests its perfectly fine.

I will update when I get the battery and all is working.
that way if anyone else needs a quick cheaper replacement this
thread may help.

*UPDATE*

Got the battery this morning (24/09/2008) and so far so good works perfect.
So at this point I would recommend a 3rd party battery without any worries.
If the thing blows up or fails I will update, from another computer obviously lol.

PS- I'd recommend the seller I used on ebay. they were 1 of only 2 UK sellers at the time of typing this and they had 100% positive feedback.

3rd party battery cost: £55 deliv. Dell website: £125 deliv = saving £70
