I recently made another post about a used pair of HP130s and got such good responses that I figured I'd try again with a little broader of a question.
I've been looking for quite some time into buying a set of steel tanks. I would strongly prefer to have HP100s, but I'm considering larger sizes if the price is right, and even possibly 80s if there is a great deal around. I'm looking at prices online, and have been a little put off at the thought of having to spend $700+ on a set of tanks. I just don't have that kind of money to invest right now.
Judging by the buoyancy characteristics, and galvanization of the Worthington tanks, I am strongly leaning towards picking up a pair of those and my question is where can the best price be found? I've seen other recent threads that claimed to have found them shipped to your door for under $500, but I haven't been able to find that myself. Does anyone have a retailer in mind that offers this great deal? Alternatively, I'm fine with buying used, so if someone is looking to unload a pair in the Boston area, I'm all ears.
I'd certainly consider other tank manufacturers too, its just that Worthington seemed to have it all. Hey, what do I know though? I'm new to the whole tank purchasing thing. If anyone cares to enlighten me as to flaws in Worthington tanks or why another manufacturer makes a better one, I'd appreciate the education.
Thanks in advance!
