guy is selling a 50-cell pack of A123's for 325 US$.

Unfortunately I am in Berlin, Germany and he offers no intl. shipping, but I am wondering whether anyone know more about this deal ?

be well

Evidently the seller has a connection to an far east supplier willing to ship quantities of the cells at a bargain price, and he stated he's willing to change the module configuration to suit the buyer.
The price is suspiciously low. Like his price is well under $5 apiece low. I don't mean to knock what could be a great bargain, as he claims they're the genuine item, they could very well be a cleverly assembled knock off. Maybe they fell of the loading dock :lol: I'd recommend anyone interested in these to ask to buy one cell for examination before committing to a large quantity. Or in the very least, ask to see a dated image of the pallets he's pulling these from that show the printed date/lot sticker on the box.
