Sold the wrong battery

I bought a battery on Friday. I went in-person because I wanted to make sure that I get the right one. I know you can not return batteries, hence my wanting to be sure.

 

I was sold the wrong battery. It's too big for the tray. I currently have a small battery and I knew that I could remove the sleeves used to hold the small battery. I didn't question the size because I thought it would fit on the big tray underneath the sleeves.

 

I have him as much information as I had and even showed him the pictures of the battery. Other than suing them in small claims court, what would be a good course of action?

Where did you buy the battery? If you got the wrong size, most retailers will let you exchange if not installed. They should have looked up the correct battery...Autozone, Advance, O'Reilly, Napa, etc.

      Has anyone sold auto parts on eBay or Amazon as a business?
      By TieRod
      Hello everyone, new here. I am curious if anyone has sold parts on eBay or Amazon as a business. I don't just mean selling a few brake pads that you never used or something like that...lol. I mean a real functioning business where you are buying from a wholesaler or direct and then setting up your product online for sale. With that comes replenishment, margins, tax, etc. So I'm curious to know if this is working for anyone and how you got started, what software you are using, best practices, etc.
      Thanks,
      "Tie" Rod

      Advance Giving Away Free Batteries to Randomly Selected Customers on National Battery Day
      By Counterman
      new national survey by Atomik Research reveals 91% of American motorists say they’ve experienced a dead battery, but nearly two-thirds (65%) of motorists admit they don’t think about having their car battery checked until it’s too late.  
      To raise awareness of the importance of having a reliable car battery, Advance Auto Parts is giving away free DieHard batteries on National Battery Day, which is Sunday, Feb. 18. 
      Advance said it will surprise randomly selected customers with a free DieHard battery, including those getting their current battery tested, at participating stores nationwide.
      As part of National Battery Day, Advance is partnering with Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield to encourage motorists to get their car batteries tested.  
      “Checking the performance of your car battery can prevent unfortunate and even unsafe events caused by dead batteries,” said Junior Word, Advance’s executive vice president, U.S. stores. 
      Additional data from the national Atomik survey commissioned by Advance in January underscores the need to remind motorists to get their car batteries checked:    
      Sixty-five percent of motorists say they’ve missed or been late to something due to a dead car battery; nearly 10% say they missed or were late to an important life event – such as a wedding, funeral or birth of a child.  Only 2% of motorists indicate they’ve had their car battery checked before a cross-country road trip.  Only 5% of motorists report having ever checked their car battery when there is a drop in temperature.  The post
