mobile batteries

Hi,

I am confused about batteries for mobiles as there is a wide price range for the same thing it appears to me.

I have a BA750 battery  (1500 mamp) for my SE arc. I need a new battery and this can cost $50AUD from a shop  but on ebay and other online shops it is going for less than $10 new and is called a backup battery.

What is the difference?

As with laptop batteries there are multiple manufactures out there. What you see unless its marked OEM is a battery from someone other than Sony-Ericsson's normal partner. With that said if the batteries have the same characteristics as the OEM you can use it in your phone. Pay attention to the mAH capacity as that will determine the length of time your battery will last with a full charge.
