I got some ORIGINAL Canon batteries for my 5D MkII through a parallel importer/grey market shop off eBay in Sydney for $19 each. Only difference between these and the locally available version is mine have Russian Cyrillic on the boxes and the label. DEFINITELY Canon originals, just for the Russian market. These batteries are over a year old, get DAILY use (most of my work is photography), and hold charge easily 6 hours or so. When I use 2 in a battery grip for long exposure astrophotography, I'll easily go an entire night with the end result being about 17% left on the batteries.
Says a LOT about the price gouging that goes on here, and retailers wonder why a LOT of us shop online.
