Avoid ebay and find a reputable online seller. Again, you don't say where you're from so it's pretty hard to help you.

I'm from Ohio. What is so bad about eBay?

I buy some stuff from Ebay, so far I have never had any issues.

I wouldn't buy batteries, but I have bought coils.

I bought 4 lgs. From a seller that has 99.9 % reputation. They're also the same ones j have right now and look the exact same. So I don't know.

So how do j check the scratch code to know if they're real?

No batteries. Fakes are rampant and I have to put that battery next to my face.

Not necessarily, but you do want to make sure they are safe. Your protected through eBay's buyer protection so just return them if you want. They may be fine, I don't know, just a good practice to get your batteries from reputable sources.

NEVER batteries but other stuff can be worth it . Even with great feedback batteries have been found to be counterfeits , pictures have fooled many people since sellers often post pics of authentic's but thats not what you get .

With authentic batteries being sold for around $12.00 a pair from reputable sites there is absolutely zero reason to risk the extremely high likelihood of getting taken with E bay.

MFS has authentic Sony VTC 5 's on sale right now , around $12.00 a pair .

So is there no way of telling if they're real or did I waste my money

Fakes often work but their longevity will be far far less than authentic's according to many who know about this stuff.

I bought a lot of batteries off Ebay when i didn't know any better , looked fine , seller said they were authentic , found out all fake , even the sellers take the word of their suppliers .

The suppliers are often NOT legit and approved , thats a big problem.
