As of today 01/07/24 we are charging $1.95/cf for He in Broward County FL.....just adding to the statistics.

Most of our customers are kitefishermen and despite fishing with kites on windless days, off of $1M+ boats, they *still* complain about the price. On the other hand, our Trimix crowd is glad to have us around....

We also fill pure O2 @ $0.45/cf with a standard $5.00 fill fee.
Which shop are you filling out of? Those are pretty good prices!
 
2.00$ cf about retail up here. Makes me glad I dive a rebreather

In Australia my last G (9.1m3) of He was $684AUD late last year. Recently got a message from my supplier to say they have reduced the price of He reason being "This decision was made as Helium supply has become more readily available, allowing us to pass on the cost savings to our valued customers like you."

I remember the days when I was so jealous of us divers and the price they paid for He when it was around $100USD for T.

It is easy to post low prices when you don't have any to sell. They haven't had helium in nearly a year.
That's not true? We got 18/45 fills from them last month, and I've been there several times in the last two weeks while they're filling custom mixes. They won't do them on the spot, you do have to give them a head's up and drop the tanks off, usually overnight. But they have it and they're filling it.

Incorrect. A year ago they didn't have any helium, but they've been getting it in more regularly now. I just wrapped up a CCR ART course where my students were able to get 21/35 fills without any problem.
