You have to be careful of fake items on eBay.... I bought what appeared to be a genuine Sandisk SD card, only to find out when I contacted Sandisk directly and gave them the serial #, that it was a fake...Looked genuine, labeling and all.
Thanks Chase. The deed is done....only time will tell I guess.
I value MT Shooter and his advice. I'm guessing all these batteries were made under the same specifications at the same plant.
Generally, you get what you pay for. Sometimes, you get screwed by the brand name....
I have used Wasabi brand batteries on several of my cameras without any issues.

I have found Wasabi batteries to work well and cost less, but they are not selling a fake Nikon battery, clearly they are a competitor, not a counterfeit battery.
OK.... so after posting this "great advice", I admit that my batteries may not be genuine Nikon. I apologize to anyone who I may have mislead. I always buy "brand name" and thought these were. Time will tell. Again....sorry

Thanks Dave for the kind words of consolation. Yes, that was my intention but.....I stand "embarrassed."
