Good luck.
BOC and Liquidaire only lease them now. No outright sales.

X2. And if you DO happen to find a bottle for sale, its useless once empty, as nobody will refill it for you anymore.

Rent a bottle from BOC or liquidaire like the rest of us have to.

I use these guys in Sydney, first purchase is a full bottle (you then own the bottle) but when you run out they just deliver another full bottle and take the old one away (like the swap and go LPG thing at the Service stations).

http://www.speedgas.com.au

Works for me as I don't use a lot of gas and over a period I save on bottle rental charges. 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.
