the older my phone gets, the harder to find batteries with
mfr dates within the last couple of years.  If not from a store where I
can see the battery before purchase, or before payment, to note the mfr
date, I contact the seller since often they use stock photos, not pics
of the actual product they are selling.  I establish a chat which I can
use a proof of the seller delivering an invalid or non-agreed product to
get a refund (I've done that at Newegg and eBay).

I just checked Amazon for replacement batteries for my 5 year old Galaxy
 S10+. I got 75 hits. So there's apparently no shortage. I looked at the
 first 20 and they were priced between $9 and $25 US including the
 replacement tools. So they're not all that expensive. Even if one only
 lasted a year it might be worth it. The ones I've replaced in the past took
 less than an hour to replace and my labor is free. Lets see. A new Galaxy
 at around a grand or a new 20 buck battery? Well, when my current battery
 does finally go bad I'll have to think on it...
