Default Cell phone batteries?

It looks like I am going to need a new battery for my cell phone soon. Do you always get one from the company you purchased your plan from? I have Verizon and their batteries are really high. I can get one from somewhere else a lot cheaper but will it be as good?

I hate when I need a new battery for my cell. I have bought the cheaper ones before and didn't notice a lot of difference. But yes, there is a big "difference" in price!

I have never actually had to replace one before so I am not too sure. I see the advertised all over the place though and most knock off stores have better prices, but are they really the same battery?

My last cell phone finally needed a new battery. They didn't even carry them in the store where I got my phone originally and would have had to special order it for me. I got one on eBay instead for half the price.

I have yet to need a new battery, what type of phone do you have? I know sometimes if its a work phone you can get the company to pay for it.

I have never purchased a battery from my wireless carrier. We always get them on Ebay and we have never noticed a difference in anything but the price.
