Where can I get a working battery for MacBook Pro 15 (mid 2015) A1398?

Patient
MacBook Pro 15 (mid 2015 A1398) without battery (powered only).

History
On the 330th cycle, the battery began to swell, a week later the poppy turned into a "rocker".
After reading horror stories, I decided to remove the battery and dispose of it. I peeled it off for about an hour :)
With all this, the system considered that the state of the battery was "good", the residual capacity was 90%.

New battery I
ordered a new battery in a large online store, connected it.
The system sees it, shows the charge. Current = 0A, message "Battery is not charging". The menu has a black triangle and the message "Replace Now". Briefly, without external power, the poppy does not turn on.
Resets SMC and NVRAM carried out, no results were given.

If you connect the swollen battery back, everything works as normal.
In general, returned back. It's good that I didn't stick it: D

Question
Tell me where to get a normal battery?
Perhaps someone came across and solved this issue.

Findings:

  1. If you have not yet disassembled and have not applied for warranty, take it to an authorized service center. (replacement program https://support.apple.com/en-us/15-inch-macbook-pr... )
  2. If the battery is swollen, but the poppy did not understand, also bring it to the service. They suggested that the price tag for the work is only 14K (not exactly).
  3. In other cases, either a service for 44k (check in the service), or a lottery with Chinese batteries.

Instances with aliexpress and onlinetrade did not work, we managed to return them.
The service center charged 44K for acb + topcase, it's better to take a used donor for that kind of money.
As a result, I took it to partsdirect, the battery started working right away, I tested it right in the issuing hall. Link to the product, may be useful: https://partsdirect.ru/goods/436266
Defined as Simplo (manufacturer). In foreign Internets they write that this is one of the suppliers of original batteries for Apple. I don't know how true this is, so far it works great. :)
UPD: There is still an option on Ozon, I haven't tested it, judging by the reviews it also works.

In general, you can’t trust the reviews on Ali or ozone. There people just write them without real testing. Such batteries with a relatively small load behave inadequately. If you discharge them slowly, for example, without heavy applications, but simply by working with documents, then everything will probably be more or less good. But if you discharge it under a good load, then a glitch occurs in their brains by about 50-70% and the charge drops sharply to 24, and then to 6% in a few seconds. This was not the case with the original! under any load, it took out up to 3% and then just fell asleep, and was not cut down
