1.0 out of 5 stars BUYER BEWARE!!! ITEM IS NOT NEW!, March 3, 2010

Item was ordered from seller alwayzonsale (with Amazon fulfilling the order) with the expectation that the battery would be new in its retail packaging as described. As it turned out, what I received was a used battery (clearly indicated by scratch marks and chips along the edges of the battery) packaged in a small clear bag taped with scotch tape and labeled with the item number marked NEW. The battery itself was made in China, of inferior quality as oppose to Japan which my original blackberry had supplied. In my opinion, use the extra dollars and purchase the official battery from the blackberry website instead of wasting headaches and your time to return a useless battery that is not new whatsoever. Take heed and Godspeed.

This item's description includes the wording "Retail Packaging", which is misleading. I received this battery in clear plastic packaging...not what I would expect from "Retail Packaging". Charged the battery and 3 hours later I was already down one bar. Would not recommend. Buy your batteries elsewhere!

Well, it looks new, but it performs like a severely used battery. I bought this to replace an 18 month old battery that was no longer holding more than two days of charge. The one I bought here barely holds 12 hours of charge. It's total garbage.
