    Yes indeedy. Just bought two for myself, but the seller claims to have 6 available so that means there are four left. If you want them, go get em. Good price at US$50 each!

    Ebay item # 220382703025 is what you need to know.

    Gasp never seen new batts at this price in the 6 months I've owned my CF28. Esp. genuine original new panasonic batts.

    Thanks Craig,
    Good 28 batts are getting harder and harder to find.

    Hey Craig, mind if I ask what you paid for shipping? I saw that listing much earlier but US$45.50 to ship a battery is way too rich for my blood. Sure sucked the "WOW!!" out of any deal (no kiddin'... seller has a US$6 2-port KVM and Int'l priority mail @ US$54 shipping to SG... I'm speechless...)

    ... and that COA on his 28 listing might as well be toast.

    I'm gonna have sour grapes for breakfast.... :D

    The shipping calc quoted US$63 for shipping on the two I bought. Works out under US$200 for two brand new batts. That's a good score, and anyone else who got some is scoring well too.

    Craig.

    He's also got a nice CF-28 that is in great condition and some great accessories. The PC itself is loaded with a ton of crap but it looks good.

    Well the two new yellow-tab CF28 batt's have just arrived in the post - amazing how sometimes parcels sent from outside Australia can arrive here in very short timespans!

    They're brand new genuine batts in original panasonic packaging just as shown in the seller's listing.

    Craig.
