    just get one from eBay
    check if its a UK seller if that bothers you
    just look on you tube for video guides

    If it's an iPod Classic, you can replace it yourself, but it don't look easy by any means..... google it or search youtube
  • ebay is the best way and before buying just check the rating of the user.
  • Both replacement ipod batteries I've bought from ebay have been rubbish - go well for about a week, then won't hold charge. Maybe I've been unlucky. Try to get one with a warranty (if you can?), it really is very annoying.

    This is regardless of their feedback rating (unless its very low of course!)
    Friendly greeting!

    sounds like ebay is not the place to go then!
