I suspect that with exchange they will be a bit more than B&H, but they are listing as in stock.

I picked up 2 of the non OEM K7 batteries from a guy on ebay. They look identical to the Pentax battery, are rated and test the same and are dramatically less expensive. It took 2 weeks to receive them but they are working perfectly. For those that are interested, i got them here:

I just ordered a Pentax one from Cameta on ebay at ~$60. Expensive but they claim it is original Pentax with warranty.

Just an FYI- it seems that Amazon does a good job of delivering Pentax accessories.

I ordered a grip and a battery last Thursday- the grip came in yesterday, and the battery today (despite Amazon's claiming that it was on back-order)!

I bought from the same guy ... took 2 weeks as well ...

The sad thing though is that after 2 weeks of being charged and ready to go the battery is not working. I put it in the camera and nothing. I placed it back on the charger and it charges for about 10 seconds and then nothing. I am waiting for a reply from seller.

p.s - I didnt leave it on the charger for 2 weeks although that shouldnt matter and the charger turns off once charged.
