Why is this four times the cost of buying this at BevMo?

The cost is higher due to shipping cost which is high because it is liquid in glass bottles, and it's shipped in protective Styrofoam containers to safe delivery.

Actually, I would be happy if I could find a spare battery for $50 or so. But $150?! When I can buy another unit for the same price? Weird. I'm not seeing a lot of support from B&D; for these units, which is a shame since they seem well-designed otherwise.

Same here. Interestingly, when I've seen spare batteries listed they are going for $150 (!). If that's the case, you might as well buy another unit from HD and use its battery as a spare.

No it is not. I thought it was and would have paid more. Now I have to buy it separately.

Our costs are higher than you have found it. These prices mostly include shipping. Amazon also collects a 15% fee from the sellers of this item. I would say keep buying it where you are.

I bought the exact same product (I get the Amazon order update at the top of the product page) last year for $75. I wanted to get a second set for four players, but now it's $315! If I'm going to drop $150 a gun, I'd expect it to at least run on a rechargeable lithium battery.

The price is up and down all the time, on Amazon. Got mine at Radio Shack for $229.

I'm sorry, I did not see this question as it came in strange form. If still interested I can look into it further, but there doesn't seem to be an easy way to change the shipping fees on my end that I see. I would definitely be able to basically throw the 5th one in, if you purchased 4 so would basically work out the same?

Exactly! I could sell these a LOT cheaper than this vendor by buying retail, paying sales tax, offering free shipping, and reselling on Amazon. This price is more than twice what it should be.

The company can change the price of the item whenever they want. They probably looked at their competitors, and similiar 14W chargers, and adjusted. That's the world of capitalism, daddy-o.

It appears that the price changes. It should be possible to get the remanufactured unit for about 60% of the list price of the new unit.

Also is $22.99 at the lego website. Not sure why its more than double the price here.

I remain confused why every time I click the link for this product a different price and seller is featured. They range from $3.01 to $28 (for new) and how are we supposed to know which is going to give us the quality battery and not? My order says the 2 batteries I ordered came from PacificCellularDistributor ($9.30) and neither one would charge past 83%. The vendor us not happy with my negative review saying their batteries are OEM and the fault must lie with Amazon and pulling the wrong stock for them because they supposedly supply only OEM batteries. I'm not the only one with a comment their battery from them did the same, so my review will not be edited. Like I said in my review, I can believe these are OEM however I doubt they are new. One has to wonder what happens to all those batteries when people upgrade their phones. I don't know, but I suspect they are sold in bulk to resellers who then sell them as "genuine OEM" batteries. The old saying "you get what you pay for" may indeed be the case here. I decided if I'm going to save some money vs a new one from the carrier phone store then I'll just take my chances on a vendor making "compatible" batteries, at least then I'm likely to get a new one. Good luck with all of you - I can't figure out the "fulfillment" process here when several vendors supply what is claimed to be the same thing and with extreme price ranges.

It shouldn't be $40. You might want to check with the seller with the price you were given.

I purchased this for $5.59 in the past. Must be an error or typo, as there are sellers with it for less than $7 here on Amazon... which is STILL steep.

I have no Idea, my supplier informs me that his price from the manufacturer/distributor has gone up for some reason.

The price new is $9,999, not $999. The $999 one must be the cut rate version they sell to discount electronics sores.
