Is that just the part? That’s pretty high. I get they have costs to infrastructure, but I used to be in industry and was certified on most major brands for in and out of warranty repair, and most batteries from most brands cost about $15 on the high end. The rest of the cost is usually labor. If you’re doing the labor yourself, over 100% markup seems a bit high.
