205.188.200.147 Comments Selecting a hearing aid is a very complex process. Whereas in other purchases, one may compare features, reputation, guarantees, prices, etc. This doesn't work with hearing aids. Also, you are buying from a seller who may recommend a hearing aid that provides a greater profit to the seller than another aid. MD's, audiologists and dispensers are all fighting for the same market place causing a fragmentation to the process and more bewilderment.
Prices vary from one seller to another.
Some charge many hundreds of dollars for this failed sale. Others charge little to nothing. Never assume because something costs more or a lot, that it is a higher quality deal for you. There is not testing process to assure the best choice aid for a person. Such tests serve as a guide only.
