Are BlackBerry batteries cheap ?

hie ,

I wonder the BlackBerry phone being reasonably expensive, its batteries seems to be very cheap, I doubt.
Yesterday, I was surfing some sites to find the rates for BlackBerry batteries.....I found there are different rates on different sites, and some of them had really mentioned the cheap ones say around $8...
Are Blackberry batteries really cheap ?

Yeah, it may be true....... since it matters from which place it has been purchased. For instance, if you purchase from the country where it is manufactured, you may get in cheap comparatively than other countries where it is exported.

Few months back, I bought a 1600mAh battery from eBay
for my Curve 8900 under $10 shipped and it works great.
However, I had to wait almost 15 days for it to arrive
from Hong Kong, honestly saying it was really worth....
