Probably not for everyone, but I bought my hearing aid online at Lloyds.com, after going to an audiologist for an exam. They offer an online hearing test, if you don't want to go to an audiologist, and give you a lot of information and many choices. I paid less than $400 for a behind the ear digital name-brand aid and have been very satisfied. I have had it for about six months and would buy the same thing again. Now I don't have anyone to take it to and have it adjusted, though I can send it back to the company for adjustment or repair. As I stated it is probably not the solution for everyone, but it has worked out for me at about 10% of the price of an in-store solution.
