This is my second purchase for a replacement battery for my Macbook Pro (late 2011 version) since almost 3 years ago, and this time I also purchase a new power adaptor. The Seller is quite responsible and send email and measurement to ensure the connector is the correct one for the power adaptor prior shipment.

If there is only thing that could be improved is the China Post shipping tracking number is not trackable on the sites provided.

I recently placed my first order on Digit-Key for some IC components. The total cost for the components are USD$14.38 (as testing samples), during the check-out process, there are options for shipping using express courier such as UPS, etc. for US$30.00, I thought it was expensive compare to my purchase amount, so I opts for longer delivery time option for postal service, and for this option, there is no price provide, and will be 'quote' by Digi-Key later. It turns out that the postal service costs me more than $75 for the shipment, the worst part is that there is no way I could reverse back to UPS service (which turn out to be cheaper), because I only get the invoice and charges after Digit-Key has shipped the order.

This is by far the most expensive online purchase on shipping charge. I don't know how Digit-Key can compete in today's world of e-commerce.

I learnt my lesson, this is my first and the last purchase from Digit-Key!
