He also had some 15s but they were bought up within a couple hours.
About 10 years ago our club did a mass purchase of 100+ 10 gal. cornies. We got them for about $15 each. Time have changed.
Must. Resist. Temptation.
Me too.
Tempted until I saw the price - no longer tempted.
And… sold.
Wow… that seems crazy now. I wish I could find a deal like that. I’d probably buy a dozen of them. LOL
Here’s a 15 for 300 bucks: http://www.ebay.com/itm/15-gallon-Homebrew-Keg-Ball-Lock-Cornelius-Corny-Home-Brew-Kegs-/300620111270?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item45fe5adda6
As the hobby grows, pricing for many items has increased. Supply and demand strikes again!
If you figure that used 3 gallon cornies can sell for around $70, this price doesn’t seem too out of whack.
But the days of $20 cornies are probably gone.
Very much gone unless you find a deal at a yard sale or such.
The ones at Adventures in Homebrewing have gone up to $45 used.
$20? Yea, that’s probably a historic number at this point. But, if you are near Olympia, Washington, there’s a guy on craigslist that sells lots for either $30 or $40 depending on how well the rubber top and bottom are doing. All are pressure tested, and pressurized when you poick them up. Plus, a new gasket kit with each.
We just picked up 20 of them, witht he 20 I already have, I should be good for a while. And I sealed the deal on some used boilermakers. So soon, I can move up to one whole barrell at a time… Woo Hoo…
Yea. I still see them listed for $35 and $40, but they’re inconveniently located. Gone are the days of picking up two for $20 each when I get my gas refilled.
