blucken-ga,

You can see pricing for USP grade glycerin here:


http://www.americarx.com/index.asp?PageAction=MFGSEARCH&ManfID=187&Page=1


which puts the price at $64.99 for 4 liters, or $16.25 per liter.


I did not see any quotes for bulk purchases, however.  


If you need additional information, just let me know.
