I am dubious of these numbers.
If I could really buy 1 kWh of cells for $130, I would expect to see them show up on eBay for not much more than that. (Or, even for less, because eBay has a lot of factory seconds, damaged goods, etc)
However, prices for new bare cells on eBay is more than double the numbers quoted in this article.
It makes me think there are market distortions going on, and the real price is differing from the advertised price.
