the whole listing doesnt make sence how is
You Save: $723,427.01 (100%)
that 100% of
List Price: $723,440.00
?

if it was a saving of 100% then the bateries should be free ...

I just think the little math system they use either A) Was completely confused or B) Isn't used to dealing with that kind of number and just isn't accurate enough to where 12 bucks is considered a percentage of that high of a number.

lol still pretty funny. and if u go under the new and used buy thingy thers more batteries of the same kind for 250$ .... lol

What's also funny is that, like condoms, batteries are also being offered used.

**carsey** · 11-21-2006, 12:10 PM
