Macbook Replacement Battery Problems (A1185)

I just bought a replacement battery for my Macbook from an Ebay store (eShop-Best). When first using it. The charge dropped pretty fast from 59 to 49% in just 3 minutes. It showed a service battery warning. I don't know whats wrong, the battery or the just the macbook. I am now trying to recalibrate it.
