The date is right under the A123 logo, and it will look like it was done with a wood burner.

The original batch will say:
A123
FS300001-001
FB0610070-7-1$

In the last line, the FB06 is the production date

Feb. 2006!

Check it out.
Yep...FB0606 and FB0608 on the ones I have taken apart.

I hope this is an isolated case. I can understand limited warrantees on batteries, since people tend to kill them. I'm not sure how I feel about blocking for feedback. I guess it's his way of saying, "if you aren't happy with me, shop elsewhere". He wouldn't want to get another neutral or negative feedback against his store. As much as he sells to happy customers, why take that chance ?
I agree. Batteries would be very tough to warranty. I'm upset with the somewhat childish nature of the way he handled it.
My response to his last note was
"Not a chance of revoking my feedback. You need your ratings more than I need your cheap price".
