I got a bunch of them.
I also got a bunch of them in October 2007, but at the SIlk Road
Market in Beijing. The nominal asking price was 10 RMB each,
batteries included, but when I got a bunch, I was able to get it down
to 8 RMB (about US$1.10) without too much haggling. I have seen them
on sale at Kragens Auto Parts and at Harbor Freight for about $3.00.
