    I'm getting ready to invest in cylinder batteries. Dr Prius tells me I have two bad cells, but I am not the DIY type with the space and equipment to diagnose and replace. Would you be interested in the other 26?

    My husband and I are into scraping and came across three fully intact 2008 prius batteries that have been sitting maybe a little under a year. We want to know what the most lucrative option would be to sell them. We are in San Francisco. Thanks

    List on craigslist for best offer. You really don't know what you have there, it could be worth $100, it would be worth more. How are you able to determine they are 2008 and they have only been sitting under a year?
