I received this battery from a seller not named Amazon but through the site anyway. At first appearance you will notice that it is a BP6X battery, but the one I received didn't look exactly new. Didn't look exceptionally used, but it definitely wasn't new. I did however try the battery out and believe it or not it did exactly what it was supposed to do - power the phone. After a few power comparisons with the battery included with my phone (I've got a Droid 2 Global that sucks battery power down like a child drinking a sugary cup of Kool-Aid), it actually compared equivalently, which was a pleasant surprise. The price for the battery was what dared me to try it, and it seems to have been a smart buy. I'd purchase with the notion that if you receive a good battery then you've been blessed, and if it doesn't happen to work as expected it isn't the worst loss in the world. The company I received mine from also included a warranty for replacement if I wasn't satisfied as well, so with those two things in mind I wouldn't have a problem recommending this as a buy to someone else.
