Thinkpads Forum

I actually bought my t43p off these forums, and this battery was with that on purchase. I'm running Linux on the TPad, so I don't have the cycle count of this battery. The capacity info is reported as follows through acpi:

design capacity: 77760 mWh
last full capacity: 62140 mWh

It gives me about 3 hours of life under Linux, and it was good for closer to 4 under Windows. I have been using the other 9-cell, so this one has not had more than 5 or so cycles put on it since I bought it. Pictures can be found here.

I'll start it off at $65 shipped (to the lower 48 - $55 + shipping anywhere else). I'm sarumont on eBay for feedback reference.

*bump 1*

You can only bump your item once every 72 hours...be careful...

d0h...thought that said three times/day NOT once every three days.

Anyway, here's a bump and a price drop. $55 shipped to the lower 48, $45 + shipping to all other corners of the world.

$10 for postage to the U.S.? Why not ship with the cheapest option (probably $4) so that you can reduce your asking price to $49 and get more people interested?

Gee thanks, at $49 I think I would be interested................

what if i pretended to live in canada, but i really live in michigan. than could i pay $45 plus actual shipping because that would be less than the $55 you have listed....................... odd, would i still pay $55 if i picked it up?

$4 shipping? With whom? USPS rates from TX are running around $7 for parcel post, $10 for priority. UPS is at $9 and change for ground; Fedex is just over $8 for home delivery. I've been boned underestimating shipping costs before, so I try to be as close as possible to actual costs.

Either way, it's sold now, so discussion on my pricing is moot.

It depends on what kind of box and how much filler you throw into the box. I mailed a 9-cell T4* battery by Priority Mail just last month for $4.60. I think First Class would have been a few cents cheaper.
