Sounds about right, the OEMs want you to not repair or replace slightly outdated parts, but instead replace the unit as a whole, so they charge extortionate prices like that, heck, the laptop I'm presently using cost me less than that to buy 2nd hand...
Still, at least you're not footing the bill...

Though my battery's pretty tired, still works for half an hour though, it's meant to be an extended capacity model aswell, might just rebuild it at somepoint...

I haven't got round to replacing the battery yet but when I moved the laptop a little while ago the cable popped out but the laptop stayed on!
Over an hour later it is still on happily playing music and charging my mobile

Last time you plugged it in...you made contact ! and it has charged the battery...
If you can`t do it yourself.... see if anyone can re-solder the power socket to the main board...

Maybe the fault is still there but intermittent.
It's now well over two hours with 30% (35 min) battery power left.
