Where to buy battery acid??

Autozone? Or NAPA? Will they have it.

Got a new battery I've had for a while and it came empty.

Thanks!

It behind the counter so you will have to ask for it. I recently got a battery online and had to get some at Autozone. I called and asked if they had it, to which they replied yes. I asked how much it was and they guy on the phone was like "about $15". I went in and asked for the battery acid and the first guy told me "We don't carry that, I don't think it's even legal to sell". I asked another guy behind the counter and he said "sure, how much do you need?". It was about $3-4 for a small bottle.

They do have it, they just might not know they have it.

It's a shame that so many people who work in retail are stupid and know so little about their own business. I think it's gotten a great deal worse over the last 10 or 15 years. Nobody seems to care......

they only care about making their 8 bucks an hour or whatever....

no more caring about the customer like the good old days used to be

If they cared enough to learn their job thoroughly, most of them wouldn't be working retail, at least not for long.

But then they couldn't whine and bitch about how terrible everything is.

This is the problem. At least in a Ma 'n' Pa operation they are both making enough money and commited enough to ne competent in their operation.

When the only one making more than $8 are the CEO's and shareholders, you shouldn't expect them to care.

For bike parts, it's online ( Bikebandit, Z1Enterprises). Their people seem knowledgeable and seem to care about your needs and customer service. For general stuff, use a REAL auto parts store, where the guys behind the counter are knowledgeable, and often have vast amounts of mechanical wisdom that they usually dispense freely. Pep Boys, Auto Zone, Advance, etc. are usually a complete waste of time. If you call, they don't know if they stock something (like Berrymans) or tell you they do, and then after driving there, find out that they don't.
