So I went to charge my spare set of optima Batts. and much my suprise both of them are dead. So I set out to costco to buy another set of blue tops. I took the ld ones with me just incase ther was a credit on the core. So the guy at the return counter says wll how old are they? I told him about two years or more, he look at his screen and I'm looking over his shoulder at it and Im shocked!! Turns out optima has a 18th month exchange and costco has a 36 month. Two new Batts free of charge!!!!!!!! Cant beat that with a stick

I recently bought 2 Optima Blue Tops at Costco. They had the best price on them that I could find...$142 each. Unfortunately, I had to go to 4 Costco's before finding them in stock.
Note...if you go to a Costco and they are NOT in stock ask to see a manager who can look in their computer at the stock of the other Costco's nearby. That's what I did after the third one.

I bought a blue top there a couple o' years ago. When I got home, :eek: no battery! I called the store on the off chance I left it in the cart or such and that maybe someone turned it in :( fat chance :( . The manager told me come on down, they'd replace it. Can't beat that for customer service.

Costco has almost an unconditional return policy. I bought a 24" TV with built in vcr and dvd over 2 years ago for about $600. Last week the dvd was not working right.
I went in and asked about the warranty, they said bring it in for full credit. I brought it in, got back $600, bought a 27" TV/VCR/DVD for $399, had $200 left over....and a bigger, better TV.
Good deal!!!

we had a TV we bought at costco.. we had it for 5 years and it broke. we had heard from a friend who worked there, costco would cover it under warrenty. well we took it in and sure enough... it was covered and we were given a full refund!!!!!!!! i was shocked and amazed.. costco will normally go above any existing warrenty. long live costco and great customer service!
