I ended up paying just under $100 for 30l. My only other option is getting a 160l dewar from a welding supply shop and that will cost way to much for me. Living in a low usage area sucks.
Bad news from Ukraine. Till 2011 LN2 in Kiev (the capital city) was available at ~$1 per kilo (1.2 litres). Now it is almost $2 -(((
Some regional sellers also raised the prices. Not so tremendously ($1-1.3 depending on a region), but it won't help to me and my teammates who live in Kiev.
Time to go phase-change.
Wow,that sucks.
Ouch. You guys lose some LN2 production capacity or just a general price increase? I had this happen at one of my vendors so I just switched to another that still had the cheap price($0.30/liter vs an increase to $1.50/liter). My old vendor increased prices because I ONLY purchase 200-300L/month :down:
the LN2 manufacturing plants still make the wholesale coolant as cheap as it was before. No production shortage I suppose.
It's only the sellers working with small clients who raised prices. Extra income 'from air' -) And it seems they all cooperated to do this. We don't have any local alternatives.
I got quoted $2 per liter from my local airgas here in central PA, which I was pretty happy with.
i was paying $4 but then $1.5 per L cuz i was there so much and so poor, then now i am getting them for free cuz they just love me
I got so f'ed on the last fill @airgas in pisscataway.
used to be $90 to fill my 24l dewar and just last week it was $160!!!! wtf?
i've compiled a list many moons ago for Australia if anyone needs some info

You gotta try to get the same guy everytime. Different people charge different amounts. Sometimes you get a tightwad that does everything by the book and charges you full rate. I'm guessing you were getting the account rate, when you have an account it's cheaper. Sometimes, like I said, some by the book jerk will stiff you for the non-account rate.
Call around to welding shops and find out either if they'll sell it to you or who they get it from. It took over a dozen calls around my area to go from $6/L at airgas to $1.25/L from a welding supplier. Don't take what airgas tells you as gospel. They're not the only game in town most of the time; and if they are, you may be able to buy from someone who buys volume from them at a heck of a lot cheaper then they'll quote you. Also, once you find that cheaper price, like 87dtna mentioned, get the person's name and only speak with that person, or at the very least say the name of the person that quoted you the cheaper price.
Yeah right.
Any one from Cali know what ln2 usually runs for here?
just paid 8.93$ for 25L
oxarc ftw :D
am i getting ripped of or does this sound like normal price?
sorry i don't know
52.85 usd for 25L dewar refill :(
You're not getting raped, that's middle of the road pricing. You can do better if you work on it a bit.
@bad
thats where i started too...
now its free...or recently it was free, i wanted 25L but they ran out and only had like 15L. so it was free lol
On the first place I know here it's like 1.30 euro/liter and on the second place - 0.5 euro/liter. Problem is I don't have a dewar yet, too expensive and can't find source for used ones near me.
Dry ice is more expensive - 1.50 euro/kg.
I just found a AirGas about 54 miles away from me, so i look forward to seeing the price and getting some dice for the first time,...
In serbia 1.023 e\kg or 1.38$\kg
