I've got a very posh ACT battery tester. It gives you an instant readout
of the battery's actual capacity in amp.hr. Left over from when I was
working. I'd expect any decent battery place to have similar.

Basically, if that capacity is something like 20% (or more) less than the
figure on the case, it's scrap.
