 Optima Batteries 8016-103 D34M BlueTop Dual Purpose Battery Jul 12, 2010
Good battery, good price, but would not buy this product from Amazon again because packaging was poor which resulted in damage in shipping.
 Still up in the air Jul 08, 2010
I just recently started using this battery and I hooked it up to a car that has a lor of extras, so it drained it in the matter of 5-8 hours with a full charge I have the battery tender hooked up now so I will see tommorow how it will do I haven't been able to give it a trur test with driving the car and charging it by the alternator every day. I will write another one then.

 NO Packaging protection! May 28, 2010
Unbelievable!
I read many of the reviews about POOR packaging, or NO packaging. I thought after all of the negative feedback from customers, the distributor and Amazon would figure out the correct way to deliver these batteries.
Mine arrived UPS in about 1 week, and lucky I was present when it arrived. NO Packaging at all. The battery casing was damaged, the base was all chipped up, and the bottom looked like it had been used for a skate board! The UPS driver was also upset that there was no protective packaging since it is considered hazardous material. I ended up buying the same battery at Battery Plus (for about $38 more with tax), but at least got a battery that looks new.
Good product and value, bad shipping method Apr 29, 2010
Battery arrived with post cover missing. It wasn't in a box and had potective covering for shipping. Therefore, battery was also scratched and dented on the exterior. I would consider buying more, but the price just went up from $168 to $189, which is too expensive now.

Great battery. Concerns about shipping or return sent me elsewhere. Apr 26, 2010
I've heard that these are great batteries and when I decided I wanted one (actually two) I began shopping for the best price. Amazon did have the best price but after reading the horror stories about inadequate or no packaging, damage from handling, and the inability to return the batteries to Amazon I continued shopping around. I actually found them for sale at Autozone for the same price as Amazon. I did have to pay sales tax buying them at my local Autozone but the peace of mind that I didn't have to worry about bad packaging, damage from handling, or problems making a return made the minimal sales tax worth it. Sorry Amazon... I bought the batteries from Autozone. I still buy a lot from Amazon, just not batteries.
