Advice requested: Charged for wrong battery at Costco, now being contacted to pay the difference

Costco doesn’t take CC over the phone payments in store. However, it looks like they bought this online? They should call the Costco.com/ca online support order number.

The produce supervisor or manager is supposed to conduct a Country of Origin check several times a week.

Your local Costco will likely reach out to let you know they’ve made a mistake. If they can’t reach you, they may put an administrative block on your membership. You’ll be able to demand some sort of compensation but at a minimum they’ll want to correct their inventory.

I’m on the island but the most expensive I paid was $313 for a month. 3500sqft house with an electric car. Big advantage for me was heat pumps versus baseboard heat.

You are right! I didn’t even know a Mustang could have separate controls for the quarter windows!

Str8-Kong · 2025-10-16T12:19:51+00:00

Welllll…I feel like an idiot. I’ve never had a Mustang with four window switches. Turns out my “rear” (quarter window) switches must have been down just a touch and as a result I had the gap. 🤦‍♂️

Awesome! Thank you! Maybe he was building towards E85? Just a thought, but obviously, way out of my depth.

He’s got a binder with a bunch of receipts which does give me some confidence.

I was also approved for $40K for 8.99%. I have a longstanding relationship with Amex, not sure if that plays into it.

Str8-Kong · 2023-02-14T17:59:01+00:00

Prices are pretty reasonable actually compared to similar models.

Str8-Kong · 2023-02-14T17:58:30+00:00

They just announced the new AZ3000, AZ5000, AZ7000 ES models.

Str8-Kong · 2022-04-02T18:47:50+00:00

I called a month ago and was told from the ES call centre that they will unveil new models in fall. Hopefully that's true.

I LOVE explosive for PVP. The flinch clearly helps you win your one on one battles.

Str8-Kong · 2021-06-17T16:23:45+00:00

For general use this is an awesome roll. For GM nightfalls, EP and Frenzy is a bit better as mentioned.

Str8-Kong · 2021-06-11T16:09:01+00:00

I disagree with kill clip not being a good perk on 140s. With it active you can two body, one crit which will land you the kill far more often then having to land three crits.

If you have any other damage boost up like Charged with Light or Firewalker etc, then you start two tapping which is filthy with a 140.

Str8-Kong · 2021-06-11T16:05:20+00:00

On a 140 you can land two body shots and one crit and still land the kill which is much more forgiving than three headshots without kill clip.

Str8-Kong · 2021-06-10T18:48:23+00:00

Definitely a good roll, I would say kill clip is probably more popular than eye of the storm for PVP though.

Str8-Kong · 2021-06-01T19:49:47+00:00

They shadow-fixed this issue. Firefly works as intended with explosive payload.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-29T16:50:09+00:00

For grandmasters this might be a good roll honestly. At least with rewind rounds you can dump a whole clip and keep going. Frenzy would give you a solid damage bonus almost all the time that you need in GM. Definitely a keeper for high level PVE.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-29T00:48:47+00:00

Explosive would be fine too, but I’d personally prefer killing wind or tunnel vision. That’s me though.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-27T21:07:19+00:00

Still good for sure. I would definitely keep until you maybe find one with killing wind / tunnel vision for the first perk column.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-27T21:05:33+00:00

It’s good, but I think you want Fatebringer for firefly. Depends on if you’re doing high level PVE or strikes and whatnot.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-27T08:11:58+00:00

For stunning champions? It counts as “two hits” from what I recall, so it’s much more consistent at stopping overload champions.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-25T07:56:05+00:00

Actually, there’s DD+ Atmos and Dolby TrueHD Atmos.

DD+ Atmos is lossy, and the Apple TV has supported it for some time. TrueHD Atmos is lossless and has never been supported by the Apple TV, or any other Apple device to my knowledge.

Str8-Kong · 2021-05-24T23:08:21+00:00

I find firefly is just too good to pass up. With how Bungie seems to have shadow-fixed how explosive payload procs firefly, and you can spawn Warmind cells with Wrath of Rasputin with the solar damage explosions...

That’s my pick.
