Online they appear to go for about $50 and that includes a carrying basket.

Thats why I like my Tuff Tanks so much. I regularly use my 9 gal Tuf Tanks for 6 gal batches and can lug it around well enuff. The handles built into the sides make a big difference.

Then again the 14gal tanks, when full of 12 gallons for double batches are just bee-atches to move. Thats what those furniture mover carts with the casters are for.
