We went through the process of buying 2 new house batteries recently. We checked Costco - absolutely no one to help with any questions there. Decided to check with Canadian Tire - got real HELP, questions answered and prices comparable to Costco.
Those batteries are too heavy to be hauling around to compare. We found even with taking a picture of the label and trying to find similar at Costco was nothing more than frustrating.
Canadian Tire even took batteries to our car - won't get that service at Costco.
I wouldn't take a Cdn Tire battery if you gave it to me for free. Everyone I have had has been garbage and they fight you on the warranty.
Costco could care less for your reason's for returning them and have a better pro rated battery warranty.
Remember Costco does not have dedicated "experts"(like the 18 YO kid in auto parts is, yea right) in any of their departments like Cdn Tire. You do your own research and if you're not happy, they'll take it back. BTW you could have asked for a carry out and they would have helped.
