Wait, what? That's quite odd - I had helped others in the past receive from overseas the Nokia N9, batteries were not an issue then (upon release).
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I'd say try ordering one from AliExpress instead with the money from the refund, the reviews so far are all positive. They're refurbs, but who cares about that.

I just noticed they're also for sale on AliExpress, from a couple of trusted sellers. A lot cheaper, too (only €70 with free shipping!):

And after 3 weeks they tell you the customs isn't happy with batteries.
I just got a email from DX informing me customs denied shipping due to the batteries. They included a way to get a refund.
