Ok to buy?

Hello everyone, so sorry if this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find anything from a search.

I'm trying to determine if buying the 5400mAh or 6000mAh batteries off of eBay is a safe bet? Almost all of the sellers are Power Sellers, but that sometimes makes me more nervous. Has anyone purchased batteries from eBay? Overall I'd love to buy the DVXuser ones, but the eBay ones are soo much cheaper. Anyways, any feedback will be much appreciated!

Anyone also know if using a 7.4 volt is ok compared to the OEM 7.2?

I wouldnt do it, might risk overloading it.

I bought a couple of these 7.4v 6000mah generic DVX100 batteries off ebay.
The battery case is made of pretty thin plastic, but other than that I haven't had a problem with them.
A full charge gets me about 4 hours per.
