    Hey Guys I have an HP NC8230 and the battery is dead.

    Is buying a OEM one from Ebay a bad idea? I don't think it is worth dropping 140 bucks on a HP one.

    Any help is appreciated

    A friend of mine bought a laptop battery on Ebay. AFAIK, he hasn't had any issues and he saved quite a bit of cash, if memory serves.

    Be careful with batteries off of ebay. I wouldn't buy an off-brand. Try batterymart.com too.

    If it is still under warranty, ask for a new one from the original company.
