"Batteries now cost as much as a new phone." -Apple

If you buy each iphone components individually through Apple service center, the cost added up to equal multiple brand-new iphone (and you still not have enough components to assemble a full iphone).

This is nothing new. If you buy all the parts to a car from a car manufacturer it adds up to several cars.
