How much does it cost for a 3.5L or 5L topup? =)

so you mean that you will deliver right to the doorstep? If it's so...then it's a great service.... My CO2 tanks are still full so I will keep your number in mind. It's alot more conveinient then lugging the cylinders to the LFS and back. Great service and I am definitely interested.....

[Cedric]

Wow! Great service! But just to confirm, how do you recharge the cannisters? You do decanting? (from big cylinder to small cylinder) or actual recharging? (bring to SOXAL at Jalan Buroh near Jurong Island) to recharge?

Guys, I understand that this is done as a service to fellow hobbyists for little profit... so I'm allowing this to happen.

I'm giving Platax the leeway to promote this service as he has to work hard for it and is not really a commercial posting because he is not selling something that he didn't create/do/plan himself.

I really hate lugging a 5kg CO2 canister anywhere by myself too.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the support. Although there really isn't many hobbyist using this service, I'm still thankful to everyone who tried it and to Achilles Tang who allow for such a service. This service has also helped me a little when I go and top up my own cans.

Anyway, due to the drip and draps of the demand for this service, it has became really a FOC service for some hobbyists (esp due to the petrol price hike).

Ive discussed this with the other hobbyist of my about this problem & one of the solutions to this is increase the price of the service. As much as we regret doing this, it is wat we have to do so as to keep providing this service.

As for the moment, ie until the cost of petrol goes back to the usual US$10 per drum, the normal service will cost $28.00. We also will stop the week's consolidation and make it a bi-weekly consolidation. Next collection will be between June 14-15th. However if the total collection is more than 20cans, we will charge the usual rate.

The express service will now be $32.00 and at anytime you deem u require our service. URGENT ie!

SO soorie...about the increase in price but my toyota corrola full tank now $60.00....

Pls feel free to sms or pm me your quires.....

Hi all,

the next CO2 collection date is 23/8/04 & 24/8/04......sorry about lapses in service but not many of us are into this services still.

The price is $32 for express and $28 for normal unchanged since last update...It is strongly adviced that if its your first top after purchasing a 2nd hand canister, to go for a hydrostatic (leak) test which cost $20. This test will be done by SOXAL and will get your can chopped when tested 'good to use'. Ive so far borne the cost for some leaking cans after refilling and its quite a depressing thing haha.....

nevertheless, my fellow hobbyist.....I'll still provide as good a service as I can.

Please SMS (i stress this) or email me at tomac@cyberway.com.sg for queries and bookings...anytime and i'll reply ASAP!!

Hmm...btw AT if u r reading....I was tinkin of maybe providing home delivery service of pet products to hobbyist to tag with the co2 delivery oso....I'll hav 2 consolidate though b4 goin to the LFS....wat say u?

I'm happy with the Platax service and real quality CO2 fill up. Keep it up.

I once sent to Industrial shop to fill up the CO2, but it last only 2 weeks

[PLataX]

Thanks Yazid...... I hope all are happy about it.....btw I'm extending the doorstep service nt just c02 ...I manage to talk to a consultant who specializes in aquarium tank setups to provide us (hobbyist) with supplies at better prices....I am anticipating it oredi

[PLataX]

I'll be free on 16/8/04 to 17/08/04!! all who wish to get their cylinder earlier can sms now okie????

[AlfaRomeo]

Me! Me! Me! got an empty tank for you

[PLataX]

Err....AlfaRomeo....you are oredi scheduled for it rite?....

[PLataX]

Hey pple!!!

Next collection date is on the 13/09/04......do sms me ya?.....

[PLataX]

Hi Guys,

I know that I had previously cancelled the normal service due to poor demand and that I'm actually generating a loss by making 2 trips to the refiller at Tuas!!.....but come 1 Jan 2005, normal service will return and will be at a cost of $28.00 regardless where you stay in singapore.... ...however to distinguish it frm the express service, the delivery period will be btn 2 to 4 days....I will still perform special request at no charge if u need me to deliver at earlier times with express service. as 4 normal I will still give good service to all hobbyists.....

Have a great new year ahead pple!!!!!
