I haven't ever dealt with them, but I've had mixed luck with aftermarket batteries in general.  I've had issues with batteries not taking a charge, or discharging very quickly, after a few recharges.  I've gotten enough bad ones that I only use genuine Nikon batteries any more.  Batteries and memory cards are two things that I don't skimp on, because they can quickly turn a good day bad.  YMMV.

Under description, it says " Rechargeable Proprietary Battery Replacement" The key here is replacement, I think. This language is typical of the bait and switch traders.

It's easy to read that into what is written there and that is what they count on.
