Less than $13 for 6.5 gallon ones, if you can negotiate to pick them up it could be VERY worth the cost.

I guess there isnt the call over here for them. You do see a scant few on UK ebay at sensible prices but they are usually collect only because of the size/weight.

Crap! Nice find...I was in the general vicinity (Asheville) this weekend and could have probably zipped up there if they were open, but unfortunately it's a 4-4.5 hr drive for me and the shipping came up ~$15.

Heh... if I lived within a 6 hour drive I'd take off and pick some up, only because I need like 5 (my guess) for me to really get equipped, and that price would make them affordable. Oh well. That said if anyone lives in that area and will be driving to Houston some time soon I'd love to be your buddy.
