I bought some used Trojan T105 (good quality golf cart batteries) and I would not do that again! $300 for 12 of them, they claimed that they had taken good care of them, kept them watered and charged, part of an off grid house that went to grid intertie, they were only a few years old and should last 10 years or more in that kind of set up, well the sat for a month or so without being charged and they hardly hold any charge at all.
Battery prices dropped enough in the last year that I might use these batteries for my other electric car while I work on it, but I think investing in some brand new batteries is going to be worth it.
When picking out batteries it's not worth skimping on them, choose the ones that are just out side of your price range and save up that extra cash to get them.
