Alright Monkeys, my countless phone calls and questions on home-brew pages have failed me so I come to you. Budman got me hooked on home brewing and I've decided to start kegging my batches (ie- build a kegerator) so with that, I need a Co2 setup. Home brew places sell new tanks yet I know almost every welding supply shop will swap the brand new tank for their fugly steel used sucker when I go get it filled.
So do any monkeys know of a good place in the Seattle area that has Co2 tanks (steel and used is fine) for a decent price? Talking under $100, every place I've called wants 80+ for a 5lb. I'll go for anything 5-20lb.

Don't know about anything over on your side of the mountains but you might try the guys at Jim's Homebrew in Spokane. That's where I used to get all my stuff when I brewed, but I never kegged it. They always had some used stuff available or knew where to get it. Might be worth a shot picking their brains. Good Luck!

You might also try the beer essentials out of tacoma. Great people there. Even if they don't have what you are looking for, they can always answer questions and point ya in the right direction.

My buddy works at Central Welding in Everett. It is on Hewitt just west of I-5. I am sure he could find something for you.
On a side note...are you still connected with that moto suspension shop you used to work at? :D I am in need of atleast springs and was looking to keep it local. ;)
