I've got a Dell G3 3579 that's in a dire need of a battery and a bottom panel replacement. I've thought of buying them off aliexpress, but I'm a bit skeptical of it... So ig my question is whether it's OK to buy stuff like replacement laptop batteries off aliexpress.

E: I've checked, amazon does not ship to my country... I'm also technically asking if anyone knows any trusted good replacement battery manufacturers that I should look for...

Buy the entire keyboard.
Then return it for "missing the E key".
Who ships a keyboard without the E?

No no. It's a laptop. And it broke. Still have it some where.

My comment still stands.
Instead of paying $20 for a single key. Pay $100 for the entire replacement keyboard. Remove the E key from the keyboard, then return the keyboard stating the letter E was missing when you received it. When they get it back, they'll refund your $100 and your issue is solved.
