I've looked through the posts and didn't find anything on this subject...So, what are the advantages of owning your own tank/s? My LDS just last Monday, said that with all the rentals I've had (approx. 30) that I could have bought my own tank...here's my thoughts on the matter.
1. If I own it, I've got to get it Hydro'd every 5 yrs (or 6)(approx. $20 -$30)
2. I have to have it VIP'd every year (approx. $12 - $18)
3. Air fills cost me $4 (If I owned the tank)
As it is: I pay $8 every time I want to rent a tank.
I don't worry about the Vip or Hydro...
the negative side...If I don't get a tank on Friday or Saturday...I can't go diving on Sunday....
Am I missing something?
Thanks....
