Hmmm.... You still may want to call around to other LDS and double check that price increase. I occasionally buy some stuff from LP. They are good for some things, however, there they lack the customer service of a LDS. The tanks from LP are shipped empty. And if I am correct, they are shipped with the valve not installed. You have to pay for shipping, have the vlave installed and get the them filled. For the few dollars differrence I would rather buy a tank from a LDS. PLUS, the shop I used gives 10 free fills with every purchase. That's worth a few bucks right there.
