I purchased a pair of OEM batteries for my T2i off ebay. I've noticed in a few instances that sometimes my T2i does not power on. Batteries are fully charged. Initially I put in one battery and it works fine. I go into live view and after a minute or so my camera auto shuts off (like it should). I press the shutter/record button to power up the camera again but it won't turn on. So I then toggle the on/off switch but the camera still does not turn on.
I open the battery door and eject the battery. Then shove it back in and if I'm lucky, I can turn my camera on again (although it has happened where it doesn't). I've swapped batteries and I've seen it happen on the other battery too.
Has anyone come across this before? Could it be some kind of problem with OEM battery contacts?

Yes I'm aware that they're not official batteries. Just wondering if this is a common issue amongst grey market batteries.
