Surely theres a place in Vic. like this.

I'm with Daz. I bought a D size (argon) and E sized (argoshield) through speed gas. I own the bottles outright, and can have them refilled or swap-n-go through my local coregas/speed gas distributor.
Refill/swap price is higher than a rented bottle, but the rent savings brings me way out on front.
I have the same arrangement for my CO2 bottle through the local home brew shop.

I have my own argon bottle. I rent the same size bottle for a month and return the empty one.
