I bought a few sets on ebay a while ago - I've seen them listed at least one more time since then. Not sure if they were truly original or not, if not they were very similar to the originals. Not expensive at all. Also some Dell rack mount servers come with similar cable ties, I've seen them at work but haven't found the stash at our data center.
I'd like to update this old topic. I need some of these removable battery straps. I figure they must sell something like these on eBay, similar to the straps used on vintage RC cars. I tried the Velcro ones but they don't do a good job keeping things secure. The typical Velco ties are also too wide and need to be cut down significantly in order to fit through the grooves in a Marui Galaxy chassis, for example.
they offer three different types at mcmaster-carr, a top tab, side tab, and flip tab, all various lengths and widths. I'm sure any of the industrial type online stores will have something similar.
I now have available battery straps for my transverse shorty pack battery cups, printed in Nylon.
I'll make these available at Shapeways in the next day or two, but for now I have 3 available for immediate shipment. The price is $8 plus shipping....

Is there anyone with the original works 91 battery straps willing to take their measurements for me and send them to me? I can then send this to fibrelyte to get some costs....

An original Puretech strap. Modern batteries are too long to fit flush on the chassis with the cross bars, and the strap is a bit short for the fatter cells.
