AC recharging an R12 system

[sherab]

Hey folks!
Does any know anybody local who recharges AC systems with R12? I know it can be done if you can find someone licensed to do it and can come up with the cans of R12 and I'm looking to avoid a retrofit.
Many thanks!

R12 is hard to find anymore at least in my area in PA. Because of it being scarce people have driven the price up.

Umm who are you and where you located... 94 is right.. We just bought a R12 30 lb can and it cost us about $250.. (yes we have a license, we use it to cool the machines in dry cleaning.)

I know Benchmark Motors off Red Branch Rd. in north Columbia has a shitload of the stuff. They work with BMW and Mercedes primarily but would be happy to top you off.
