    Toshiba Satellite P750-BT4G22 battery a bit loose

    I just received a brand new Satellite P750-BT4G22 model (bought online from ToshibaDirect) and I love it overall, but there is one minor build quality issue that's bugging me. The 6 cell battery is a bit loose, as in even though it's locked in place, if I push on it, it moves about a mm or two vertically and it's kind of annoying. I've taken it out and checked and nothing is blatantly defective. The locks are intact and no matter how much I wiggle it, the icon on my screen still displays the battery as being connected so I can't tell if this is some minute production size defect or if it's standard. I can't find people complaining about it online other than myself and so I just can't tell. Does anyone have any ideas? Anyone else with a newer Satellite model notice this? I would appreciate any assistance.

    Every laptop I've owned has had some play in the battery. You can use some paper to fix it if you must.
