I do these every so often.... Anyone else do this?
They are just selling Chinese knock offs most likely. I bought a battery for a laptop on Ebay once for a HP laptop.

Turns out the seller was the Chinese company that made the batteries for HP. The battery I paid $30 for showed up and had all the HP stickers on it. Meanwhile HP charged $90 for the same battery..
