Forgive me for my ignorance, but I'd be quite curious to get a feel for the going rates for EAN fills from anyone who'd care to reply.... I work in a shop in Southern Florida, and I've done a cost analysis on our gas. Even if we give it away at cost, we'd still have to charge around $6 for an 80cf fill of 36%...I was under the impression that O2 was expensive (we pay pretty high for ours, since it's trucked in from over 100 miles away) but if other shops are selling gas for between $3 and $5, I don't see how it can be THAT spendy, if they're making any money.... I'd just be curious to see what other parts of the world charge for 80cf of 36%, and for other blends as well....(our general rule for non-standard mixes is divide FO2 by 2, and that's the cost in cents per cubic foot. But hearing other's prices, this seems WAY high!) -Case diveman@cy*.co* JDA000@ao*.co* wrote: > In a message dated 98-09-08 10:34:07 EDT, jeffbentley@mi*.co* writes: > > << Divers OutPost wrote: > > > > We have implimented a new fill policy! > > > > >From now on all fills will be charged according to tank size.
