B3 sells a bundle of 4 used reconditioned kegs for $150 delivered. It is best to ask them to "cherry pick" some nicer ones without stickers and dents. You can get 4 used but not reconditioned kegs for $120 delivered, but then you need to replace all the gaskets.

You can find them cheaper if you have time to look around.

Cap'n, I think he's looking for 15 gallon kegs to play monster garage with.

Whoops! My bad...

PM Lars and see if he has any converted 15.5 gallon kegs available. If not, he can at least help you cut the top off without fucking the keg up, but it sounds like you might have the skills to do this yourself when you are not drunk!

Nope, I've been out of the keg business for a few years now. Good luck finding one in good condition.

I may have one... I think I've got two left, and I need to modify one to become an HLT... If I actually have two (rather than one), I can definitely part with one for what Tim charged me when I bought it from him.

This'd be at Dustin's place up in Yorba Linda... I believe it was $30 (which will probably include Dustin's brother cutting the top out with a plasma cutter if you want).
