Some of threads on here about group buys or someone offer cells are months old and people are just adding their name to a 4 month old post as if the deal is still around. Is there anyone that currently has any of these cells available or know a reliable source for me to buy? I’m looking for 16.

You might want to consider the 272Ah cells. I suspect this EVE shortage is cause sellers to lower their quality standards.
This is something I hadn't considered, but is one plausible explanation as to why it seems we are seeing a lot of cases in the last month or two of EVE cells from multiple suppliers testing below capacity.

I do not recommend this seller.
6 of the 16 cells were damaged.
as well as cells from completely different parties.
positive points - low price, and the seller communicates quickly.

I just ordered from this place. Delt with a guy named James MO. He was a good guy and helped me through the hoops I had to jump through to get my C card to work. They even sent me a video of them testing my order for voltage and IR. My order just shipped today. Ill be posting my build when I get all my parts.

how many cells do you need? I might have 4 -8 units up for sale. I've been out of town for past 2 weeks, and they arrived while I was out.

Did they give you any indication of shipping time? Seems like a realy good price.
 
They didn't. He said there will be a delay because of a Chinese holiday. I was sent a tracking number. They created a shipping label via FedEx in HAWTHORNE CA on Jan 28th. I imagine its shipping from China and going there first. It consists on 4 packages totaling 92 pounds. 2 cells per box i guess. Im still watching it.

Hit up Michael group buy he makes it an easy process.
 
Thanks. Keep us up to date on when things arrive. Very curious.
My batteries were on a boat that 2,000 containers fell off. The boat is docked in Japan last I heard. Michael replaced my batteries from his personal stash. He is a stand up guy! I got 8 280 ah batteries they were packed well. I will hook them up and test them in the next couple weeks once I aquire the last few thing to put it all together.
