Deka EXT-16L battery

Anyone ever buy a fresh Deka EXT-16L directly from the Deka factory store in Lyons, PA? Any cheaper? I read that they sometimes have blemished batteries at a nice discount.....I could care less about what it looks like if the warranty is still included. Bat prices up since I last bought some at about $80 on Amazon. One year warranty is about the max anyone has now. Don't want to mail order and get a 1 year old battery off Amazon or Ebay.

OReilly sells the $107 Super Start that is the same battery (a few others out there) but only offers a 6 month warranty...too bad since it is priced a little cheaper. U can usually tell a Penn battery since it has a imprint in the front left of the case and the same style sticker rating on top....with 325 CCA amps. The 16L fits all my skis stock.. My XP and XPLs were modified to take an 18L (not very common slightly thinner and longer) but has 340 CCA...Big Crank but also a Penn battery. Samsclub has the 16L Duracell AGM Plat for 105 (14L was 103 and only 220 CCA!) The Walmart Everstart AGM Plat was $100 (90 day warranty!) and the Autozone Duralast Gold AGM was $107 - 6 month warranty. Not sure why the warranty is not the same time for all these batteries since they are the same battery as the Deka EXT-16L which usually has a 1 year warranty. Walmart batteries were the newest 1-2 months old and the Autozonw were already 8 months old sitting on shelf.
 
I only use the maintenance free Yuasa YTX20HL-BS-PW batteries. They have 18 Ah and 310 CCA and fit perfectly in the stock battery tray. I haven't had one fail or last less than 5 years. $103 on amazon, they are shipped dry with the acid in the box so shelf life isn't a concern.
