Online batteries can be old. They can be half way thru their age.
Also many are not packaged. No card or display Bought in bulk |

It may also be that people who are buying batteries in a store need them right now, and so are willing to tolerate extremely high prices. See also: people who pay $80 for HDMI cables because they are already at the Best Buy, and they want to take their TV home and plug it in, instead of waiting a week for the $3 monoprice cable to come.

Here is where most people are getting their USA made batteries. No connection with them. I think they might be a dealer here? If I recall I seen their add in the EE. |

In the store you are paying for the store front, the utilities, the maintenance, the store staff, their benefits, the parking lot. Online = less overhead = lower prices! |

Counterfeits abound - that being said, there are plenty of legit online places.
I use these guys they are quick, reliable & have good prices. Also they move enough stock that batteries are fresh. No idea if they ship to Canadia. Early August so the shipping lanes are still probably frozen solid. |
