I WILL BUY IT
- Must meet any of these conditions:
● the battery status LED will be orange and blink constantly, when battery is inserted

Battery has to be genuine IBM part, and not third party, people sell on eBay, that says "Replacemet battery..." on it

What do you do with them? Why aren't you interested in any that are in the RED zone?
Sounds like they are resold on ebay or???

When you see ads that they don't stand behind the battery's these will at least show something.

you gotta have big cojones to be re-building batteries. I was considering it, but the individual cells cost almost as much as a replacement battery anyways, so I abandoned that.
