Forwarded from TDI List. Thought there might be some interest here as well.

Late in 2012 and into 2013, I arranged a group purchase via Ian in South Africa. Several folks asked once the group purchase was closed. Unfortunately, because of some "misunderstandings" between the shipper (who was doing to the service essentially for free) and some people wanting to pick-up their tanks, said shipper refused to be involved with the project any further. As a result, no further shipments of tanks went beyond the original bunch.

Shipping comes to $50 each tank but that will only go from SA to one location in the US. As before, I volunteered to facilitate the single point of delivery with distribution from San Francisco, California.
