There's a listing on eBay for a T580. Everythings seems fine just that the seller states that the external battery is not included but the internal battery is still intact. Even if I buy a battery separately, is this a good idea?

Depends on the price obv. Batteries are pretty easy to get I think, like 30 bucks on Amazon. If seller has good feedback I wouldnt stress, battery was probably eol anyway
