I understand East Penn sell batteries with a big discount at their factory In PA, in you're ever in that neck of the woods.
 
That would be true. I have hauled a lot of EP / Deka batteries from the plants and they have signs there letting drivers know of their "factory outlet" kind of store at the plant if driver needs new batteries. Discounts pretty good.

Shipping is definitely the majority of the cost in your battery.
