A lot of the batteries for older Kindles offered on ebay are old stock even if never used and are beyond their shelf life. The K3 or Kindle Keyboard is now about 10 years old. I am not sure if anyone offers newly manufactured batteries for older model Kindle readers.

Certainly one Kindle Keyboard 3 battery was dated one month before shipping and one was 11 months old. Cells bought from China on eBay this year summer/autumn.
A Kindle DXG replacement cell pack was about a year old also bought this summer.
