What computer do you have?

I linked to a website giving detailed instructions on how to replace the battery. That alone disproved your point.
No it doesn't, you need to be able to buy the replacement part you're replacing.

And with no evidence that they're even genuine new batteries. Which I doubt, because like I said Apple's policy is to cease business with any manufacturer they find out has been selling them to third parties.

Boom. What's your next objection? Probably something even more ridiculous.

I wouldn't trust that company if they said the sky was blue. Firstly, their genuine batteries are labelled as "refurbished". Secondly their supposedly new batteries from supposed company "NewerTech" do not have a C-Tick. Seriously? On the actual NewerTech website there is no indication anywhere that they have been issued an electronics certification from any country - the US, the EU. A genuine electronics company would have the certification displayed so it can be verified by users. Or how about this iphone5 battery supposedly new with a 2012 manufacture date? Like I said I wouldn't trust them.

Look, the point is, you shouldn't just assume some feature that exists on another laptop, or even most laptops, exists on some other laptop. That's why you list the specs alongside the laptop you are selling.

Monitor, USB, power cable, hard drive, display adapter, ...

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
