HP100 bargain?

[Katch]

XS Scuba HP100's with born on dates of late 2007 and new hydro. I bought two at $195 each. I think I got a deal because their ebay picture shows the tanks without a valve, but upon reading the description, they will ship with Pro Yoke/DIN valves. Wha-da-ya-think?

Sounds like a great buy.

A reasonable deal if the shipping is not outrageous, which it often is.

Shipping was only $26 per tank. They relisted a third tank that nobody bid on.

Just a little tip. from my past experience with buying used tanks . get it looked at by your LDS or pop the vale and look inside . Just because it has a new hydro / viz inspection does not mean it is ok all the time . I purchased a LP100 that had a hydro and viz inspection that was only 3 months old . and the tank was black inside and was tumbled w/ 3 different types of media and chemical clean and was not usable (chunks flaked off on the inside wall). that is a good deal just be careful GOOD LUCK with your new tanks

The tanks look good, but they sent them with low pressure valves. I called and they said they'd send me the proper burst disks. There is a LDS that has a June special for O2 cleaning (tank/valve) for $25. Once I get the proper disks, I plan to get them O2 cleaned (and inspected)

Wolfie...Where did you see them for sale here? I've been checking the classifides, but haven't seen deals like that (with cheap shipping).
