Aragon bottle refill question

admin

Well today I was discussing gas prices with a airgas guy and I decided to ask him how much for a bottle would cost to fill in either 85-125 he tells me 12.00 for argon or the 75/25 mix now I'm no expert but that seems to be a damn good deal i now have a new gas dealer haha . So that got me to thinking what's the prices like for you guys? And what's considered normal.
Reply:Jump on that. Normally Airgas charges triple that to a walk-in customer.I pay $42 for a 330 bottle, and $56 for a ar75/he25. Whatever you do don't let Airgas rope you into a contract without having a lawyer review it.Weld like a "WELDOR", not a wel-"DERR" MillerDynasty700DX,Dynasty350DX4ea,Dynasty200DX,Li  ncolnSW200-2ea.,MillerMatic350P,MillerMatic200w/spoolgun,MKCobraMig260,Lincoln SP-170T,PlasmaCam/Hypertherm1250,HFProTig2ea,MigMax1ea.
Reply:AIR GAS INEXPENSIVE ???     That is almost free ! What is the catch ?? Do they have a 100 tank minimum ?  My 125 of 75/25 was $30 to $40 depending on supply for a exchange.

Reply:Cost me $70 to swap out a 330CU argon tank, and $38 to refill a 80cu C25 cylinder.I hate having this mega 330cu argon tank in my garage but the cost of refilling a smaller one is hardly even worth it out here...$12 take that deal...www.FirehouseFabricators.comZachLincoln 210mpLincoln SW200Hypertherm Powermax 45xp2x4 CNC Plasma Table.
Reply:IIRC, I paid around $25-28 for an Argon refill on a 125 a couple of months ago.  Doesn't matter because prices and policies are all over the place.
Reply:Dang yall paying out the *** the reason I'm getting such a good price is that he is a welding teacher at the school I'm at also . He is gonna make me go broke though I'm ordering a new dynasty in the next couple months and he said he could beat 3200 by a good bit for just machine and give me a deal on a bottle and he told me the gas prices which I put in the op. So basically anything I want he said he can beat whatever price I find pretty much. I mean I've been eyeing a pipe liner and arc 1 linse to go with my miller he said 40 for helmet 60-70 for lenses can't beat that.
Reply:Uhhh. 100% Argon is $125 for a 60ft^3 here (Hawaii) if I recall correctly. Maybe 80 or maybe even 120 ft^3. but even 120ft^3 fpr $150 is expensive. To buy a bottle and have it filled  was approx.  $300 when I priced it and it wasn't the monster bottle. It was a little guy. So you guys are all lucky. To top it all off I know several people who won't even call airgas here. They said the people at the DMV are nicer. Expensive and rude. Although my dealings with them have been ok.

Reply:Luck is when your LWS fills both of your 244cf with argon and your 330cf with oxy and then tells you his credit card machine is broke... then tells you not to worry about it. GravelThe difference between theory and practice is that in theory there is no difference.
Reply:Whoa. I looked it up. $265 for an empty 125 cf tank + $168 to fill It. For a Total of $433. S**tbags.

Reply:Checked with him today dynasty price is 3189 unless I find it cheaper elsewhere then he will match that price and a 125 bottle is 225 plus 12 dollars for fill up using Aragon
