The battery on my Dell Latitude 7280 has finally given up the ghost.
Hero to zero in about a minute.
I am looking for a replacement and seeing many options, but which
suppliers are reliable?
Any recommendations most welcome.

Conclusion: UK address is a blind and it is being delivered from China.
I wonder what the distance selling regulations make of this - in case of problems do I have a claim against the UK arm of this organisation?
Fortunately I'm not in desperate need of the battery.
Oh, estimated delivery on the website said 2-4 days for UK.

Ordered from replacement-batteries.co.uk.
Received a confirmation email saying the package had been sent out on
30th August.
Carrier is Yodel, status is notified of package and waiting for it to
arrive at depot.
Depot is Hayes (which I assume means Heathrow).
I raised a query via their chat line and got the following:
"Hi
The package will be delivered by yodel.
This tracking info will not be updated more until it arrives in your
local city.
Shipping time for a battery package will take about 10~11 days generally speaking.
So many flights are canceled because of the COVID-19, shipping time will
be longer than before.
Please wait patiently, any other questions please feel free to contact
us."
Plenty of what look like Chinese characters in the email.
Message is from laptop-adapters.org.
