Ebay Refrigerant!!!!
Hi,
Has anyone ever brought any refrigerant from Ebay and a supplier called tradetrotter based in germany they are selling 2kg cylinders of R134,R22,R404 ect.
Does anyone have any experiance with these or is it a bit of a scam.
thanks

Re: Ebay Refrigerant!!!!
His R22 is for a cylinder only, no gas.
His R134a works out at about £36 per kilo, is that cheap or expensive?
Just bite the bullet and get yourself some gas.Last edited by Brian_UK; 30-05-2010 at 11:57 PM. Reason: Spelling

Re: Ebay Refrigerant!!!!
Surely selling gas over ebay is illegal? Or does Germany not have the same stringent gas handling rules as Australia?
(EDIT: And England too I guess, since thats where youre buying it from)

At least if you buy your refrigerant from a reputable supplier, the quality should be assured. Of course, you may have to prove that you are Refcom registered, before you can purchase from UK suppliers.
