As a side note to add to what lonestar has already stated back in the 90's I purchased two 30# cylanders of R-12 about two weeks before the phase out date for $37 a cylander. A month later the wholesale price of the same cylanders was $94 each and by the end of the year it went over $300.
As the production of R-22 is phased out I would expect the wholesale cost to rise in a similar manner, and just as sure as the wholesale cost rises, the retail cost must rise proportionally.
