So after doing some math I have come up with a couple things.

1. If you do buy your chargers from Canadian Tire watch your prices. One would think buying more should save you money but the box of 40 jt with BC tax works out to .98/powerlet. A box of 25 jt with tax works out to .85/powerlet.

2. My soon to be placed order with Maria with shipping and handling will run me .63/

Thank goodness I came across this site when I did. I just had knee reconstruction surgery and this hobby has kept my mind off the discomfort, this and the bottle of percocet.

Anyone in the BC lower mainland interested in doing a group buy with me? Was thinking of meeting her in North Van to pick up and save on shipping costs.

Let me know and I'll arrange with Maria via email.

I did get my order from Maria. I guess she was away for a few days. Once she contacted me it didn't take long to get them. The quality is as good as any I have used. This is the second time I bought from her.

Don't mean to be necropost, but is Maria still serves our need for the reasonable-priced 12g CO2 chargers?

If not anymore, who else is out there?

What is the name of her company? Is there a website?

I've been getting my CO2 from LeBaron. Reasonably priced in 25 packs (58c + tax per). The 40 pack would be better, but it's never been in stock when I've been there.

I picked a few cases of caplets up from Lovely Maria when they were based in PoCo. But that was years ago. Since then, I am pretty sure that they are now based out of North Van. Excellent pricing and product. 8)
