3500mAh Battery for $4.

Hey guys, I just came across this in my news feed. I purchased one as a backup just to have because for $4.00 why not?
3,500mAh Battery for Samsung Galaxy Note II for $4 + free shipping

I am in no way affiliated with this website but I have bought from them in the past when I had my OG Droid. If this is against the rules to post this please let me know and I will remove it. Thanks!

edit: As donec has said you do NOT need to replace the back cover to get this battery to work!

No, you're golden, hdsixhundred. ;)

Now if you'd spammed the place with links to that site, it'd be a different story. :D

And thank you for prefixing your thread "accessory."

Got me one thanks.
BTW I did a little research before buying and just to let others know even though the battery is 3,500mAh instead of 3,100mAh according to my research you should not need to change the phone back and it can be charged the same as your original battery.

Ah this is correct. I knew I forgot to put that in the original post! Thanks

Well it is coming from Hong Kong.
I wonder how they can have free shipping and make a profit?
I'm gonna hold off ordering anything from them until I see how long it takes to get from Hong Kong to USA.
The price seems too good to be true....

I would assume this will take 2-3 weeks to arrive. Awhile back I ordered a crappy snap on case for my OG Droid and it took right at 2 weeks and 2 days to get delivered.

The profit is more a benefit to you as a buyer.
You're not paying for shipping.
If you were paying for shipping, you could receive your item sooner rather than later depending on what you pay for.....over night, express, etc.

They get free shipping by using space available. Meaning they find a ship or plane that has a load but has some space they have not filled and make a deal for that space. Sometimes shippers can actually make money by filling up empty space or they find someone returning from finishing their delivery but can't find a load going home and agree to carry some stuff for a promise of a larger load next time.
