I have six 20 lb. CO2 cylinders that I am looking to get rid of. I have not decided on a price yet, but I am going to try to make it a decent deal for guild members. I have already traded in 5 of the cylinders, so they are full and ready to go. The sixth cylinder was still mostly full, so I didn't swap it (using a bathroom scale, I estimate it has about 18 lbs. of CO2 still in it by comparing it to an empty cylinder). I will bring them to the guild meeting this Thursday. Let me know if you are interested (PM me or talk to me during the guild meeting).
As a side note, the 20 lb. cylinders are much cheaper per pound to swap out than the 5 lb. cylinders (of course, 50 lb. cylinders are an even better deal). A 5 lb. cylinder at Praxair costs around $15 to $18 to swap (if I remember right), and a 20 lb. cylinder costs around $20 to $25 to swap out. There is a "Hazardous Material Charge" when swapping; the more cylinders you swap, the lower that fee is per cylinder.

Re: 20 lb. CO2 Cylinders
All of the CO2 cylinders are spoken for now. I'll post here if somebody changes their mind.
I'm thinking around $100 per cylinder. Does this sound fair? Praxair values empty (20 lb.) cylinders at $156. Also remember that these are filled and ready to go.

Sounds fair to me.
