I contacted them about a replacement for my Acer battery.
They have a substitute battery, which may be better than the original 
i.e. greater capacity.

The price was quite high, $441 +GST +freight ( so about $500 total), 
when the Acer battery is about $350.

Is there any reason you want to deal with these guys? Do you have a 
price comparison for other sources for your battery?

I'd be interested in an order if it's substantially cheaper than their 
original quote.
