FS: Yellow top OPTIMA battery

Used for a little over 2 years.

Need a smaller battery for space reasons. Holds charge and has long life left, no terminal corrosion or anything of that nature.

Not really sure how to price a used battery so ill throw an asking price of 75 shipped out there.

Or if any local NJ guys attend the tuesday night meets on route 17, then i can bring it with me and the price will only be 50.00.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Yeah i wasnt sure how to price a used battery, i mean it is over 2 years old. But i guess these batteries are that good.

As far as shipping, i can ship anywhere in the US no problem. I get discounts at my job if i ship stuff so thats not a problem.

I have a yellow top as well. I believe I left my radio on for probably 3 hours straight the other day while working on my buddy's monte carlo. The radio was pretty damn loud too and she fired up without even trying afterwards. Great battery for an amazing price. Don't let the 2 years scare you away either, these last forever and never die out. Good luck with the sale!

Hey...I'll take it!!! PMing you.
I was gonna buy a new battery, and the 2-years-old thing is a little worrisome....but I'll go with everyone's advice and the fact that they "last forever". Let's try to set up a place to meet, I'm right on Long Island so that should be easy. I can come out to the tuesday night meet and take it off your hands for the "route 17 special price" heh
