I'll bet Koos, LLC is better at getting a deal than somebody with a bunch of tanks. It's surprising what you can accomplish with a business license and the right attitude. Lots of places that don't' want to deal with directly with consumers will happily engage in business to business transactions.

I have been able to get deal with Fire King but their pricing still seems kinda random. Big 250cf supply cylinders are cheaper to hydro than lp45 scuba tanks, LP more than HP, its been all over the map.

Figuring out the days of maximum idleness and bringing in a wad of tanks on those days is your best bet, good luck with it though.

They have failed tanks as demos in class. (sometimes not even the whole tank, many neck crack illustration/examples are just the crown cut off)
