Looks interesting! Group buy? Would it be worth contacting them for a price on a bulk purchase? I wonder how much 50 or 100 new Pepsi kegs would be? I'll contact them.

I'd likely be interested in adding more kegs to my "library" as my wife calls it

I actually emailed him about this previously. This is the response I got:

"Hey Jason,
Our ball locks range from $38-$45 and our pin locks are $28 each. We can fit 20 to a pallet and can also stack up to 3 high for a total of 60 in one pallet position. Also, shipping to Maine on 20 will cost $125 and 40 will cost $233. Let me know what you think and have a great day!

Thanks!
-Robert"

$45-$50 per keg, before taxes, not a great savings for the effort.

FYI: a Ford Escape can hold 48 pepsi kegs, when you need to get them from Maine to NB/NS/PEI.

That's a good price if they are new kegs. Isn't it?

They most definitely did not look new in the pictures I saw.

$28 for a pin lock ain't bad (34.25 w/shipping on 20)

That is true, however don't forget the taxes (either upon ordering depending on which state they're coming from and/or at the border if you haven't stayed in the US for more than 48hours), bringing it closer to $36. Plus gas and wear and tear on a car to get it to people. Bringing the real cost close to $40.

I guess that's my long-winded way of saying, "No thanks".
