    I need to buy a replacement battery for a Vaio Z1 (Laptop Model: VPCZ112GX, Battery Model: VGP-BPS20/S). There are a number available (at a range of prices) on Ebay and Amazon, but I'm hesitant to buy as I've had bad experiences with some "original replacement" brands in the past.

    Does anybody have any recommendations for seller or brands?

    Not in stock at the moment, but try Clearance Club or look around elsewhere for a reconditioned (or new) genuine Sony battery. I got one from them and it's flawless (and seemingly brand new). The one third-party I tried (a Duracell aftermarket that's sold by umpteen different businesses that are all fronts for the same place) didn't fit right and was basically a big waste of time and money.
