This may not be where I need to post this, but I need some help.

I have three cylinders and I am trying to decide what to do with them. It has been over 10 years since I have gone diving, so it they haven't been inspected since 2012. I am posting images of the cylinder markings. They have been stored full (I believe). I don't know if these would even be able to be used. So I am trying to decide if I should attempt to sell these or just take them for scrap metal. They are in great shape externally, hardly used. I could have seriously outfitted someone if I had thought to do this earlier.

Anyway, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Depending where you are located and or if you are will ing to ship then it shouldnt be too hard to sell those cylinders they all look to be about 16 years old and will need to be hydroed. The Genesis that is marked spun will probally gather less interest than other steel tanks as those tend to have a strange balance that people either like or hate (tail Heavy I believe). I usually want to take a look in any cylinder before buying used if possible However I usually offer $50-75 dollars for an out of hydro tank. Not sure if you have a scuba swap meet in your area or not might be worth a go.
 
The painted cylinder is a Luxfer 80cuft Cylinder

The cylinder with the exempt stamp E12079 is a steel cylinder manufactured for Catalina in Japan by Asahi. It is a HP 100 [FONT=arial, sans-serif]cu ft cylinder.

All are usable and have value beyond scrap.
 
Thanks for the information everyone. I will definitely try to sell them.
