I purchased a co2 tank second hand. The guy who sold me the tank never gave me papers for it. I took it to get filled at the preferred shop in town, and they said they couldn't fill it without ownership papers because it was stamped by a welding company in town. They showed me two separate places the tank was marked identifying the shop. Either the welding company sold it to him, or he was renting it.
I took it to the welding place in hopes of getting this straightened out. They didn't take the tank from me, but they said to find out who the owner is and get the papers from him. I called the guy I bought it from but he doesn't have the papers and lost contact with the previous owner who did. I am not even sure if it was a rental or purchased.
Am I SOL on the purchase of this tank? It was a good deal, but apparently too good to be true.
