Buying AAA batteries is a great experience. You can even order by voice via Alexa. What experience are you actually looking for? Who does it best? This result

  I'll reframe what I said a little. I want to buy the least expensive (per unit) CR123A batteries from a brand/seller that meets my own standard of trust. Search for CR123A batteries ... 14,000 results, 27 departments, about 100 sub-departments. On the first page 2 of the 17 results include per-unit pricing. There's no way to sort by unit price. Package size varies from 1 to 12, there's no way to sort or select by package size. Cost ranges from $1.44/unit to $5.02/unit --- CR123A batteries are expensive enough to care how much they cost. They can also burn your house down if the proper protection circuits aren't in place (cheap Chinese manufacturers don't always include it) They are also very frequently overpriced. A healthy market where you could do easy price comparisons would be good for the consumer but it doesn't exist. To find the least expensive, I'd have to manually sift through 14000 entries and divide the price by the number of batteries manually. It's a big frustration, and I've legitimately tried and given up on buying them on amazon because of the bad experience.
