Are Laptop Batteries Sold On Amazon Reliable?

I would like to replace my computer's battery, but I do not want to pay the absurd $135 price that dell is offering. The below link has an unofficial one for about $20. However, I am worried that since it is so much cheaper, there will be a significant decrease in quality.  Is it safe/a good deal?   http://www.amazon.com/Battery-king-Replacement-Dell-laptop-battery/dp/B003PHTRHC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327510775&sr=8-1
