Rechargeable Batteries

Hey,

Just wanted some advice as i know you are all very knowledgeable on eaby etc.

I am looking to buy some rechargeable batteries and from looking around ebay seems the best option but is it the cheapest? I dont need anything good, around 500-1000mah is fine.

Does anyone know of any good deals on or off ebay?

Any comments would be greatly appreciated

    Toolstation are reasonably inexpensive for ordinary Ni-Cd and Ni-MH rechargeable cells.

    The only disadvantage is £5 postage for orders less than £40.

    Definitely not something you want to buy second hand or old stock off of ebay.

    There is an ebay power seller called vapextech who I have bought AA and AAA rechargeable batteries from, also the postage is low and usually next day delivery.

    I also found some under seller called nalibz. Apparently postage is free and prices seem quite reasonable with discounts for large purchases.

    ...except they are nothing to do with Fuji (film/cameras). I got a little annoyed about this (because he goes on and on about how they are a big brand), and on asking him about it he pretended not to know any better.
    Time is an illusion - lunch time doubly so.
