How reliable Wal-mart battery compare to Sears auto?.

"They don't need repeat customers if there are enough new ones. "


Any business counting on ONLY new customers is a business that wont be
around for very long.

Walmart has been in business long enough to prove that they work to
keep their customers coming back.

I've mentioned this same experience in various newsgroups over the years.
All the really good sets were ranked really low, all the crappy sets were
rated tops. And by "crappy" I mean both in picture quality and in
frequency and expense of repair. They did this consistently enough over
enough years that I will avoid anything CR rates in its top five unless
I have other good assurances it's not garbage.

My personal experience recounted elsewhere in this thread says the
opposite. Wal-Mart batteries are not ALL junk, some do last unexpectedly
long as was my experience.
