[QUOTE="Kate88, post: 881021, member: 55892"] Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me. I was wanting to buy a spare battery for my 13" White MacBook, purely for a long car journey I'm taking later this month. I will only be using it on the way there and on the way back, and after that it's very unlikely that I will ever use it again! So I didn't fancy paying the nearly-£100 price tag on the Apple website, and moved over to eBay. Now I've heard there are quite a few cheap imitation batteries on there and people warn you to steer clear, but, I just wanted to know would an imitation battery actually do any harm to my MacBook?! I'm so reluctant to spend a large amount on a battery I am going to use twice! I'll be thankful if you could help :) [/QUOTE]
