I bought a used steel 6L 300BAR cylinder today for $200 from these guys:

All Woods Breathing Services
21-23 Paul St
Mooroolbark VIC

The guy tested, filled and stamped it for me before I picked it up, so she's good for 5 years before the next test. Take cash because they don't accept credit cards.

An interesting point re 300BAR cylinders: the steel ones last forever. the carbon fibre ones have a 15 year life then they have to be thrown away. Most users of breathing apparatus are upgrading to CF cylinders, hence the relatively cheap price for used steel ones.

Thanks to ogre6br for the referral. :D
