Pity you can't find the extended battery with new backcover.
Just feels like you got a brand new phone.

I purchased two from Kalahari om Mon. Unless you referring to a different one?

When did you order and did you receive them yet?
I placed an order for one on the 16th, they came back to me on Monday and said their supplier doesn't have any stock.

Ordered on Mon. Expected delivery in about two weeks. Will post when they actually come.

They're not going to arrive. Supplier has no stock. They probably just haven't got around to canceling your order yet - took them 7 days to cancel mine.

What tools.
Not a biggie though. S4 incoming if I can convince my brain. Common sense side is telling me to buy an S3 from one of the peeps upgrading to the S4. They are starting to go a good prices.

Yep. I had to email them to actually get them to update the item to show that they have no stock. Maybe I saved some other people some time.

Looks like eBay it is then. My daughter needs one too. Teenagers are HEAVY on battery life.

I'm looking for one too. I pass down all my old phones to my mother so would like to make sure she has a usable battery by the time I'm done with it.
Couldn't find any place online at the same price as the Kalahari deal though.

Where you based? Maybe we can split shipping if I import.

Blouberg. I would be very keen if we could come to an arrangement somehow. Shipping is the issue, can get one off Amazon but shipping cost is killer.

Will PM you in the AM and we can work something out.
Anyone else here that is keen, say so.

First one wants to charge me VAT which it should not. Second one no stock.
Have emailed the first one to find out what is up with the VAT charge.
EDIT: Got a response from first one. "Sorry we do not ship to south africa".
So Amazon it is. Problem is Amazon has 10 million peeps selling the extended battery for the S2. Too lazy to try figure out which one is the correct one. Maybe later.

Ah, it is the white one that I found (which is the one I want though): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005UY1MEE/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A53OQBXMKH4ZT
Shipping would make sense if we bought a bunch of them:

The Shipping & handling fee is a killer if you're only ordering one.
And you want the white one! :erm:
