I've used a few "OEM/aftermarket" batteries and they have all been disappointing.
The problems are as follows:
1. The charge doesn't last as long as an original battery.
2. The life of the battery decreases very fast. After 1 year you lose 50% of max charge.
3. The fit and finish are horrible. On an older white macbook the foot of the battery was too tall, so it would cause a wobble.
I only buy original batteries for my notebooks. Especially if it's my primary or work related computer. You really get what you pay for.
