My brother (trinketdan on here) in Iowa got less than that from Exide, too. Be careful as I've seen a couple ads like that, too. VERY misleading.
    Here is what the ad said:

    "WANTED!!!!

    ANY AND ALL OLD, USED, SCRAP, DEAD, AND OR BROKEN CAR & TRUCK BATTERIES

    I WILL PAY YOU $10 FOR EACH AND EVERY BATTERY YOU HAVE.

    $5 EACH FOR LAWN MOVER AND JET SKI BATTERIES

    $20 EACH FOR CONSTRUCTION EQUIPTMENT BATTERIES

    $10 - $15 EACH FOR MARINE BATTERIES "



    I never checked it out because I don't have any batteries right now.

    The big question for me though, is why is that ad still there after a week when my item wanted ads get deleted after 10 minutes. grrrrrrrr
