    Default Where to order corny's in Canada

    Was just wondering if anyone knows of a place online where I can order a couple of corny kegs from within Canada...searches are limited here as I'm at work
    I've found the majority of the places to order from are from the US and the brokerage fee's and shipping is pretty ridiculous...
    I've checked all the local home brew/wine places as well as the local pepsi distributor and struck out on all of them...Anyone have good luck with anywhere up north here?

    Cheers

    I just received 4 corny's off of eBay yesterday. 4 CORNELIUS KEGS 5 gallon homebrew beer keg soda tank - eBay (item 150369296689 end time Sep-05-09 14:17:08 PDT)

    The seller does ship worlwide too. I haven't had a chance to fully examine them so far but so look good.

    OK, I finally got a chance to look at the 4 corny's.

    All 4 of them came pressurized which I thought was a little odd. I had to use the release valve before opening any of them.

    Other than that they look great. The ones I have must have contained soda because you got a very sweet smell as I was releasing the air.

    In about 4 weeks I'll finally be able to pour a batch into a keg for carbing!

    His price looks decent, but they wanna ding me 80 bucks US for shipping alone...with exchange it'd work out to about 50 bucks per corny...

    FYI, in the shipping cost calculator input a "1" for a set of 4 kegs. I paid about $118 for the set of 4 corny's including shipping as well as one coupler set.

    Correct. A reputable dealer will pressure test them before shipping to ensure what they’re sending you will hold pressure and also assures you what you’re received is in operating order.

    I take that back. The $118 was the total bill for the 4 kegs and shipping. Add $30 for the coupler set.

    In total it was $148 for the 4 kegs, coupler and shipping.
