I think what he means is why trade? It is only like $12 a bottle if you
trade. If you buy one it is like $25.

Why would they return them to the store, there aren't deposits
on them?

This is just one of the reasons I refill, rather than
exchange......
Methamphetamine cooks are buying propane tanks from the
exchanges at Wal-Mart, Kroger,and emptying them of the propane gas. Then
they fill the propane tanks with anhydrous ammonia, which they now have
a recipe to cook Methamphetamine. After they are finished with the
propane tanks, they return them to the store. The stores refill the
tanks with propane gas, unknowing to them the improper substance that
was inserted in the tanks and sell them to their consumers. Anhydrous
ammonia is very corrosive and weakens the structure of the tank. It can
be very dangerous when mixed with propane gas and hooked up to a grill,
recreation vehicle, etc.
You should inspect the propane tank for any blue or greenish
residue around the valve areas. If there are evidences of these
substances, do not purchase the propane tank and advise the vendor of
your findings.
The information was researched, and you should check out the
following website for more details. They also have pictures for you to
view.
