Not to mention that when you purchase a set of "O" rings you get what you see in the add. When you purchase a LiPo pack you have no idea what you are getting until you hook it up and start using it. So your comparison is somewhat mute. The electronic business in general operates pretty much by its reputation because once they start having failures and the word gets out, no one wants to do business with them. Much like the rep that company "P" has now. Sure markup is pretty much a common practice, and 300% normal for the USA in general, but how much do you really think it costs for China to make these cells? I bet the true cost of LiPo cells is less than $1.00. So who is the real victom here?
