For the amount of usage I get out of two 30# cylinders I usually don't worry much about the pricing.
But I haven't seen pricing over $3/gallon since 2008
The dealer in question might have been caught up in state regulations. When we used to sell propane, we could have a minimum charge, which was necessary because some people wanted us to go out in the rain, crawl under their RV to hook up the fill hose only to find out that topping off their tank took a quarter of a Gallon of Propane. Some states, however, only allow sales by volume, minimum charges are not legal, so maybe the guy priced high to make the overall business viable.
Or maybe, propane was just plain expensive at the time he filled is tank which is very dependent on where he is located.
